Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

TO ELIMINATE DISABILITY CAUSED BY ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION DURING PREGNANCY AND TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THOSE LIVING WITH FETAL ALCOHOL SPECTRUM DISORDERS (FASD) THROUGHOUT MINNESOTA.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO ELIMINATE DISABILITY CAUSED BY ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION DURING PREGNANCY AND TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THOSE LIVING WITH FASD. SIGNIFICANT ACTIVITIES INCLUDE DIAGNOSIS, INTERVENTION AND FAMILY SUPPORT, PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING, AND COMMUNITY GRANTS.

  • COMMUNITY SUPPORT AND INTERVENTION:IN 2022, WE REACHED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE THROUGH OUR COMMUNITY GRANTS PROGRAM. GRANTS WERE MADE THROUGH THE COLLEGE AMBASSADOR PROGRAM, NATIVE AMERICAN FASD PREVENTION WORK, EDUCATION EQUITY PROGRAM, AND OUR LONG-TERM RECOVERY PROGRAM. THE COLLEGE AMBASSADOR PROGRAM GRANTS ENGAGE AND EMPOWER COLLEGE STUDENTS TO INFORM THEIR PEERS ABOUT PRENATAL ALCOHOL EXPOSURE. THIS YEAR, SIX SCHOOLS PARTICIPATED AND REACHED 9,809 STUDENTS ON 8 CAMPUSES. THERE WERE 4 NATIVE AMERICAN GRANTEES: DIVISION OF INDIAN WORK, MINNEAPOLIS AMERICAN INDIAN CENTER, MINNESOTA INDIAN WOMEN'S RESOURCE CENTER, AND NATIVE AMERICAN COMMUNITY CLINIC. EACH GRANTEE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PROVIDING CULTURALLY INFORMED FASD PREVENTION OR SUPPORT WORK. THERE WAS ONE EDUCATION EQUITY GRANTEE: SOUTHERN MINNESOTA REGIONAL LEGAL SERVICES (SMRLS). SMRLS PROVIDES CONSULTATION, LEGAL ADVICE, LEGAL REPRESENTATION, AND BRIEF SERVICE FOR MINNESOTA FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN THAT HAVE A KNOWN OR SUSPECTED FASD TO ENSURE THAT THEIR EDUCATION RIGHTS ARE MET. IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING THESE SERVICES TO FAMILIES IN 33 COUNTIES, THEY ARE WORKING WITH THE PROOF ALLIANCE TEAM TO CREATE A STRONGER SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE TO INCREASE AWARENESS OF EDUCATION RIGHTS, SERVICES, AND SUPPORTS. WE PARTNERED WITH THREE ORGRANIZATIONS - AVIVO, FAMILY SERVICE ROCHESTER, AND WAYSIDE RECOVERY - TO PROVIDE RECOVERY SUPPORT FOR WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT AND/OR PARENTING SO THAT THEY AND THEIR FAMILIES CAN STABILIZE AND THRIVE.

    Expenses $722,809 · Grants $433,958 · Revenue $35,516

  • HEALTH SYSTEMS WORK:THROUGH OUR SAFEST CHOICE LEARNING COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIP WITH BOSTON MEDICAL CENTER, WE REACHED 133 INDIVIDUALS IN 16 CLINICS IN 7 STATES IN THE UPPER MIDWEST AND NEW ENGLAND REGIONS. THE PROGRAM UTILIZES EXTENSION FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH OUTCOMES (ECHO) TRAINING TO TRAIN CLINIC STAFF INVOLVED IN IMPLEMENTATION OF FASD PREVENTION AND CARE. THE FASD DIAGNOSTIC CLINIC CONTINUES TO BE A PLACE WHERE FUTURE MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS CAN LEARN ABOUT AND PRACTICE FASD DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATIONS, PREPARING THEM TO BE ABLE TO CARRY ON THESE SKILLS INTO THEIR NEXT CAREER PATH. THE CLINIC CONTRACTED WITH A POST-DOCTORAL PSYCHOLOGY FELLOW FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA. WE ALSO CONTINUE TO ENHANCE FASD DIAGNOSTIC CAPACITY IN MINNESOTA THROUGH THE FASD DIAGNOSTIC CONSORTIUM. THE FASD DIAGNOSTIC CONSORTIUM PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL THE CLINICS IN MINNESOTA THAT DIAGNOSE FASD TO CONNECT WITH EACH OTHER AND DISCUSS STANDARD PRACTICES, RECOMMENDATION UPDATES, AND CLINICAL ADVANCEMENTS. TO INFORM OUR WORK ON SCREENING IN PRENATAL CARE, WE PARTNERED WITH ACET INC. CONDUCT A NEEDS ASSESSMENT TO EVALUATE WHAT IS CURRENTLY HAPPENING IN MINNESOTA CLINICS IN REGARD TO SCREENING FOR PRENATAL ALCOHOL EXPOSURE DURING PREGNANCY. THE REPORT IS TITLED ASSESSMENT OF PRENATAL ALCOHOL EXPOSURE SCREENING PRACTICES IN MINNESOTA CLINICS.

    Expenses $609,305

  • PUBLIC AWARENESS:THROUGH IN-PERSON AND VIRTUAL PROGRAMMING, WE REACHED 286,484 PEOPLE WITH INFORMATION ABOUT THE DEVESTATING IMPACTS OF DRINKING DURING PREGNANCY. OUR FASD PREVENTION TOOLKIT CONTINUED TO HELP ORGANIZATIONS EASILY SHARE FASD PREVENTION MESSAGING. IN 2022, 44 PEOPLE USED THE FASD PREVENTION TOOLKIT. THIS TOOLKIT IS DESIGNED TO SHARE IMPORTANT PUBLIC HEALTH INFORMATION IN A WAY THAT IS NONSTIGMATIZING AND BASED ON THE BEST AVAILABLE RESEARCH. THE TOOLKIT INCLUDES A RECORDED WEBINAR, A COMPREHENSIVE STATISTICS SHEET, LANGUAGE GUIDELINES AND SEVERAL FACT SHEETS. THE TOOLKIT IS ACCESSIBLE AND AVAILABLE AT NO COST ON THE PROOF ALLIANCE WEBSITE.

    Expenses $336,196

  • PROOF ALLIANCE CONTINUES TO WORK WITH FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE AN FASD. WE PROVIDE ONGOING SUPPORT AND RESOURCES THROUGH ONE-ON-ONE INTERACTIONS, IN-PERSON AND VIRTUAL SUPPORT GROUPS, VIRTUAL SOCIAL EVENTS, AND ONLINE FORUMS. WE PROVIDED CARE AND SUPPORT TO 96 NEW CAREGIVERS IN 2022, AND 47 NEW MEMBERS JOINED THE VIRTUAL FAMILY CENTER. OUR EFFECTIVE INTERVENTION AND SUPPORT PROGRAMMING FOR YOUTH WITH AN FASD CONTINUES TO REMAIN A TRUSTED RESOURCE WITHIN THE COMMUNITY WITH EXCELLENT RETENTION RATES. THIS PROGRAMMING INCLUDES SOCIAL AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES, SUPPORT AND SKILL BUILDING, YOUTH LEADERSHIP ACTIVITIES, AND HANDS-ON EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES. FOR OUR PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION TRAINING, WE CONTINUE TO EXPAND TRAININGS TO SEVERAL PRIORITY POPULATIONS. AN EXAMPLE IS A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE MN DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, THROUGH WHICH WE TRAINED 190 CORRECTIONS OFFICERS IN THE STATE. WE PRESENTED AT 5 CONFERENCES AND LAUNCHED OUR PROOFCON PRO SERIES OF VIRTUAL TRAININGS. OUR PROGRAM BY AND FOR INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES, OUR CHILDREN ARE SACRED, LAUNCHED OFFICIALLY IN 2022 WITH THE RELEASE OF A SMARTPHONE/TABLET APP AND A SERIES OF PSAS THAT RAN IN NATIVE COMMUNITIES. YEAR AFTER YEAR, OUR WORK RESULTS IN MORE EDUCATION AND AWARENESS, MORE ALCOHOL-FREE PREGNANCIES, MORE BABIES BORN WITHOUT PRENATAL ALCOHOL EXPOSURE, MORE CARE AND SUPPORT FOR IMPACTED FAMILIES, AND MORE ENGAGEMENT, HOPE AND ACTION ACROSS MINNESOTA COMMUNITIES.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
