What We Do: Education

Renie Morrow, Education Committee Chair, wrote; "Like many other parents of anaphylactic children, I had to learn about anaphylaxis and all the surrounding issues the hard way - step by step, through life experiences. How I wished at the time of my son's diagnosis that I had a manual to teach me all the things about anaphylaxis that I needed to know. Looking back, I can see what type of information would have been helpful and, in some cases, indispensable."

Renie and many other volunteers wrote the Anaphylaxis Resource Manual to provide informative, practical information on living safely and coping with anaphylaxis.
