The Mission of the Allergy Advocacy Association

The Allergy Advocacy Association is dedicated to helping in the prevention of anaphylaxis thru AWARENESS, ALERTNESS & ACTION.

• The mission of our association is to help inform, educate and raise awareness of the public at large and at-risk individuals to allergies and anaphylaxis.
• Anaphylaxis is a potentially dangerous allergic reaction that might threaten a person’s life.  Anyone can become a victim of anaphylaxis after they have been exposed once before to any particular allergen.  Any subsequent exposure can be dangerous.
• Our association will act as a web-based clearing-house for information on the dangers of untreated allergic reactions and anaphylactic shock.
• We will act as an open public forum for new ideas and the latest innovations for treatment of these illnesses.
• We will seek a leadership role in shaping the direction of public advocacy on related issues and initiatives in the fields of medicine, treatment and legislation.

Our vision?

“Not another life lost to anaphylaxis - not another life lost to
ANY life-threatening allergies!”

From our Backyard to Yours

Based in Rochester, New York, the Allergy Advocacy Association was founded as a non-profit organization to help educate people at the local level about this growing public health concern.  We provide a variety of services including informational booths at health fairs and instructional speakers and materials to groups large and small.
