Prepping for college... when should you start thinking about it? (Hint hint: now!)
In this episode, Pam and I talk with the amazing Kristi Grim of FARE (Food Allergy Research and Education). Kristi has been with FARE for years and was the original lead and continued director of FARE's college programming as well as lead of youth and of professional education.
Kristi and her team at FARE have done tremendous work in helping families safely send their kiddos to college. Programs for families include:
Colleges are taking notice of the increase in food allergies and want more information. To meet this need, FARE has great resources for colleges!
FARE even gives awards to colleges to honor excellence in food allergy accommodations!
All this to say, your kiddo can go to college safely despite food allergy. Tune in to hear Kristi's top 5 strategies to preparing for the journey!
Warmly,
Dr. Alice Hoyt
