Our Mission
Raising food allergy awareness
by promoting education, providing support to members and keeping children safe.








Cristina Stainkamp and Alisha Coupe are the
co-founders of Protect Allergic Kids (PAK), a non-profit organization for Food Allergies, Anaphylaxis and other allergic diseases like Eosinophilic Disorders and Celiacs. They were awarded the Mariel C. Furlong Award for Community Service.

  At our group meetings, we like to build a network of support for parents and caregivers.  PAK is available for presentations in Long Island, New York.   We welcome visitors worldwide to participate in our Message Center.  

  PAK accepts donations to fund education and research to find a cure.  Volunteers are also welcome to participate in organizing the PAK programs.

Disclaimer:
PAK is not a professional or medical organization.  It is a group of parents sharing information and supporting each other.  The discussions, meeting minutes, handouts, guest speakers, agendas, and other products of our support group do not constitute medical/legal advice and should not be relied upon as such.  Always discuss individual health questions and medical issues with a qualified personal physician.

In regard to Guest Speakers, the purpose of the presentations is to provide a variety of opinions on the spectrum on allergy issues. By no means is PAK adopting the views of its speakers, or endorsing them as medically accepted in the community. It is up to the guests to weigh the persuasiveness and acceptability of the presentations, based on their own knowledge and research.
