My goal is to help individuals with food allergies and their families feel less worry and fear surrounding food. I want those affected by food allergies to enjoy meals again.

The Food Allergy Advisor has resources and articles to help teachers, coaches, babysitters, caregivers, and other members of the community keep those with food allergies safe and included. With 32 million Americans living with food allergies, access to accurate and helpful information is critically important.
