What is the Teach Teal Program?
1 in 13 children have food allergies.
32 million people in America live with life-threatening food allergies.
220 million people globally are affected by food allergies.
The Teach Teal: Food Allergy Awareness Program was created to teach students about food allergies. Food allergies affects so many people of all ages, backgrounds, and more, yet food allergies are not taught in schools. Since food allergies are not taught in schools, the severity of food allergies becomes undermined. More people need to be aware of what they can do to help, include, and support a person with food allergies and this education needs to start while children are young. The Teach Teal: Food Allergy Awareness curriculum will increase awareness and ensure that all students go out into the world knowledgable about food allergies and ready when they meet someone who lives with the daily challenges of food allergies.
