Food Allergies

Suffolk County cares about the health of its children and recognizes that an increasing number of them may require special dietary considerations. In some cases these special considerations may arise as a result of allergic reactions to select foods. It is important that parents and schools learn more about this growing trend.

To assist parents, schools and all those desiring to obtain more information about this problem the Department of Health Services has compiled some helpful links about food allergies. If you would like to suggest additional resources to be included with these links, we invite you to submit them.
