Contains: Courage FARE Summit 2019

We can create a world where every individual living with food allergies explores, connects, transforms and advocates to become an agent for change. For three days, the Contains: Courage™ FARE Summit will bring together members of the food allergy community – teens and adults, allies, thought leaders, brands and entrepreneurs – to share and learn about living with food allergies. A place where teens and adults can come to learn, find support, and make new friendships, this transformative weekend will inspire fun and lasting memories for all who attend.

The Contains: Courage™ FARE Summit will feature over 60 sessions and 70 speakers. You can expect to hear from leading experts from across industries including research, tech, entertainment and policy, who are forward-thinking, inspirational and motivating.
