Managing Food Allergies During COVID-19
Tuesday, May 12, 2020
“Alone. Together.” That has been used to describe life during COVID-19. As part of the Food Allergy Community, you are never alone. At FARE, our mission is to be the voice of the patient – even while we are practicing social distancing.
We are excited to announce our first ever virtual symposium, Managing Food Allergies during COVID-19.
Support the FARE Virtual Research Symposium
We know that many of our FARE families look forward to our events as an opportunity to not only hear the latest on food allergy treatments and advancements, but also as an opportunity to connect with other food allergy families. While we continue to navigate these challenging times, we hope you will continue to support FARE and our continued programming while we look forward to when we can gather together again.
