I am truly honored to be an expert contributor to the highly respected AllergyHome website.  AllergyHome provides some of the best food allergy resources for the school setting .   AllergyHome’s  mission is to “bring food allergy awareness and education to your community.”   If you haven’t already, please take the time to look through the website. You will find training modules, posters and other fabulous FREE resources.

Today, I’d like to share two resources that I am proud to have been a part of creating.   I will be adding links to these under the resources tab of my website.  (There are other AllergyHome resources listed there as well.)

The first resource is Food Allergy Tips for PTA Leaders but it can be shared with school administrators, nurses, and teachers as well.  I create this Tip Sheet in collaboration with AllergyHome Co-Creator, Dr. Michael Pistiner.

Dr. Pistiner also did an excellent blog post for the National PTA entitled, “Anaphylaxis, A How-To Readiness Guide for Schools”  I highly recommend taking the time to read it.

The second resource is Food Allergy Tips for Coaches and Activity Leaders.  Please print this out and share with coaches, scout leaders, after-school program coordinators, etc…
