Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) and Kids With Food Allergies Foundation support school policies that promote access to life-saving medications to treat students and staff who experience severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis). As states consider school wellness and safety, they should implement policies that promote access, including: supplying schools with epinephrine auto-injectors, allowing epinephrine auto-injectors to be used in emergencies, appropriately training school personnel, and addressing liability concerns for those who use this medication in good-faith. aafa.org/display.cfm?id=5&sub=105&cont=889
