Helpful hints on how to implement a GFCF hot lunch program
Wanda will provide some hints and information that were very important when she met with er district in order to obtain their approval for the GFCF hot lunch program.
Tami Giles
Tami is a parent of a son with some very challenging dietary needs. Nearly a decade ago, seeking more information to help her son, Tami began an all volunteer support organization for parents, the first in Washington State, to share information on biomedical and dietary interventions. Tami's lifelong career in social services gave her the tools to be an exceptional advocate and champion for children on the spectrum. In fact, Tami was the very first Rescue Angel at Generation Rescue.
Wanda Malone, BA
Our son was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2.5. We were told “he would not be conversational." We started biomedical interventions in 2007 and now he is speaking in sentences. I decided to become actively involved in trying to make changes. I implemented a GFCF hot lunch program in our school district--the first in the State of Illinois to offer such program. Autism Family Foundation (AFF) was founded in 2010 to provide local families with an array of resources.
