On November 17,  2011, Food Allergy Kids of Atlanta attended the Georgia Association of School Nurse Leadership Conference in Peachtree City.  

 Representatives raised awareness with attendees
representing 38 counties in Georgia.  


Many thanks to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta for inviting FA Kids to participate in this educational event.  An hour and 1/2 was dedicated to food allergies, anaphylaxis, GA's HB227 and how stock epinephrine has already been implemented into our schools. 

 Thank you to all the school nurses, health wellness coordinators, state officials, administrators, and teachers who work hard to keep Georgia students safe!
