“Just wanted to let you know how much my family enjoyed the Baltimore conference. We all learned something, and our 11-year-old son absolutely LOVED being in the same room as that many people who understood what he was going through. He commented afterward that it was the first time he could relate to what every person said and felt that they understood what he was
living with.”
~ Ann, FAAN member
“Where do I ever begin to thank you?! I learned so much at the FAAN conference in Chicago. My youngest son had an anaphylactic reaction and, thanks to what I learned, we knew what to do.”
~ Chris, FAAN member

The meetings are particularly useful for anyone who has a food allergy or cares for someone who has a food allergy. This includes parents, grandparents, and caregivers of children with food allergies, as well as health care professionals, registered dietitians, teachers, and school staff. There are special sessions for teens (ages 11 and up), parents of teens, nurses, and registered dietitians.
