Advocacy
FARE’s policy priorities are driven by the food allergy communities’ needs. Our advocates work together in local teams to make change happen in Washington, D.C., and across the country.
FARE's current and ongoing advocacy priorities address some of the most significant and challenging public policy issues facing the food allergy community. They include:
Funding for Additional Research
32 million Americans living with potentially life-threatening food allergies. There is no cure and limited treatments are available. Funding for additional research is crucial.

Improving Labeling Laws
Labeling issues are created when manufacturers change how they produce a food—or when a mistake is made. We need labeling laws that are flexible enough to meet the changing needs of the food allergy community. And we need a better system for reporting potential labeling problems.

Improving Access to Food Allergy Treatments
FARE is working to create more treatments and ensure everyone can get them.
Access to Epinephrine
Quick access to epinephrine, the first-line treatment for a severe or life-threatening allergic reaction, is critical for individuals managing food allergies.
Increasing Research Funding for Food Allergies
The food allergy epidemic demands better—and more—treatment options. This means we need more research and a stronger partnership with the federal government.
