Allergy Education Consulting was created with the simple goal of helping schools deal with food allergies.   We provide comprehensive risk assessment of your school’s current food allergy policy and its readiness to act when reactions occur.   We work closely with a school or school district to optimize its plans for protecting children with food allergies.

Dealing with food allergies is a daily stress for many kids and their families; increasingly, it comes as no surprise that this same stress is shared by schools across the country.  The burden of food allergy in schools was recognized by the US Congress in 2011 when it passed the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act to improve food safety; in Section 112, the act required development of guidelines for helping schools to better manage food allergy risk and reaction.  While these voluntary guidelines provide schools an excellent outline for managing this burden, they are just the beginning.

Allergy Education Consulting can take the lead in helping a school make certain its efforts at managing the risk of food allergies is maximized.  Allergy Education Consulting can independently assess just how well your school’s policy is truly being implemented.  What is being done well?  What aspects need further improvement and development?

A strategy of multiple on-site assessments over time helps to ensure that recommendations are catered to your school’s students and their specific needs while maintaining clinical best practices.  Allergy Education Consulting and your school can work together to ensure that a comprehensive school food allergy plan is effectively implemented.
