Welcome to the Kansas City Northland Food Allergy Support Group. We are a group of parents who meet periodically but share via e-mail and Facebook to provide one another with information, support, resources, stories, challenges and successes about caring for children with food allergies. We currently meet periodically at Panera Bread in Liberty, Missouri (8580 Church Rd.) To join our mail list, please contact Jenny Giles at jennytgiles@gmail.com or visit us on Facebook!

Stay Vigilant
It is so hard to tote an Epipen around 24/7 isn't it? Especially when your child hasn't had a reaction in several years. But it is crucial to have it when an accident happens. The recent deaths of young people from food allergies serves as a somber reminder. IN EACH CASE, THEY DID NOT HAVE ONE.
