Wow. It was such a huge deal when I went to college and the UC campus I chose made it very very difficult and in fact actively discriminated against me. This makes me feel better about my daughter's college possibities.
I think requiring restaurants to server allergy food is goings to far. it's a different category from schools. People do not have eat in restaurants. The way children are required to attends school. Sorry, but this is going too far.
I frequently visit restaurants and I'm allergic to shellfish. I make sure to check allergen menus or allergy free menus at the restaurants by asking them. Its really frustrating to know not many restaurant owners maintain such menu. I recently saw few restaurants showing allergy menus in smartphones with a small QR code on the wall with allergy poster.

My DS has certain food contact and inhalation allergiea documented by doctors and a library refused to accomodate hin. We are waiting to hear from a...
Hi - where can we download some of these recommended forms? My son (with several food allergies) is starting daycare this month and I would love to have a form to fill out instead of creating my own health care plan for him.
Hello @Elizabeth Marn , you can find free PDF versions of some of these forms on the AAFA store , like the Anaphylaxis Action Plan .
