THANK YOU TO ECONOMIC SURVEY PARTICIPANTS

We want to thank everyone who participated in the national study on the economic burden of childhood food allergy. Researchers at Children's Memorial Hospital (Chicago, IL), a food allergy center of excellence, are conducting this study, which will shed light on the monetary and time costs on families affected by childhood food allergy. Thousands of parents responded to our request to fill out the online questionnaire. Learn more about this major research initiative, which is funded by FAI, with additional support from FAAN.
