A proposito di questo titolo

Food allergies can make college dining a dangerous and isolating experience, but change is happening on campuses nationwide. This episode, created by Susan Stillman, shares the heartbreaking story of Avery Gilbert, whose fatal reaction in a campus dining hall underscores the urgent need for safer practices. We explore the landmark Lesley University case, which established food allergies as a disability under the ADA, and highlight how programs like FARECheck are helping schools create safer, more inclusive dining environments. From legal battles to leadership examples like Duke University, this conversation empowers students and families to advocate for allergy-safe campus dining.Credits:
