FARE, Food Allergy Research & Education, has suggested in their news letter that the month of August be Advocacy Month.
Since congress typically takes the month off they are recommending gathering together a group of fellow parents and set up a meeting with your representative to let them know about your concerns regarding food allergies.
I recommended it you can't get a group together, draft a letter to your representatives. Or try something more small scale. Start with local awareness, with your city, county, or state. Or simply sign an online petition regarding food allergies. Every little bit can help.
Host an informational booth at local events, fairs, or school career days. And with back to school looming on the horizon, now is the time to make sure that you, your child, and your school are ready to for the coming year.
Good Luck, and Get Out There.
