Top Food Allergy-Friendly Overnight Camps
Overnight camp is a place for kids with food allergies to gain independence and self advocacy skills. This opportunity is only made possible by the wonderful camp owners and directors that have created safe environments — a second home for so many kids. To make our top food allergy-friendly list we searched for camps that train their staff to use auto-injectors, take special precautions in the kitchen to reduce cross-contact, keep common allergens out of cabins and have a responsive medical team on site.

The Mother of All Food Allergies
For decades Denise, the mother of all food allergies, has had a tremendous impact on the food-allergy community. As co-founder of MOCHA, a support group for food-allergy families, serving on the Boards of both FARE and Lurie Children's Hospital, and through her strong advocacy for food allergy research, management, and education, Denise has made it her mission to improve the lives of kids with food allergies. While best known for her leadership, perhaps her largest impact has been felt in the countless, one-on-one conversations she has engaged in with scared, frustrated, and desperate parents, including Spokin founder, Susie Hultquist.
