Food allergy is a growing
public health issue that impacts almost every school across the United States.
Nearly 6 million children in the U.S. – which equates to 1 in 13, or roughly 2
in every classroom – have a food allergy.
Studies indicate that 16-18% of school-age children who have food allergies have had a reaction in school.
In addition, in approximately 25% of the reactions that occur at school, the student had not yet been diagnosed with food allergy.
