Ep. 289: When Advocacy Meets Storytelling: The Making of Food Allergies in the City

How do you help others truly understand what it's like to live with food allergies? Through the power of storytelling. In this episode, we explore Food Allergies in the City, a new micro-drama series inspired by the real experiences of young adults living with food allergies. FAACT helped bring authentic community voices to the project, and we're joined by Del Conyers, Genentech's Director of Patient Advocacy Relations, and FAACT Director of Marketing, Lisa Horne, to discuss how storytelling can educate, inspire, and raise food allergy awareness in a whole new way. Resources to keep you in the know:Food Allergies in the City: Watch the 4-part, micro-drama seriesYou can find FAACT's Roundtable Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Pandora, Spotify, Podbay, iHeart Radio, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, BlueSky, Threads, LinkedIn, Pinterest, TikTok, and YouTube.Sponsored by: GenentechThanks for listening!
