Food Allergy Immunotherapy (FAIT) Program

Important note: Before we can enroll your child in the FAIT program, we require an allergist assessment from the BC Children’s Hospital allergy clinic to ensure that your child is a candidate for this research. Please ask your general practitioner to fax a referral letter to the allergy clinic at 604-875-3653. The current wait-time to see an allergist at BC Children’s is 18 months, and there is an additional 18-month wait from allergist assessment to enrollment in the FAIT program.

For inquiries about the FAIT program, please contact:

We believe there’s nothing we can’t do with your support. It can take years to turn scientific breakthrough into new interventions and treatments. Funding helps speed the pace of change. When given the resources, we can bring transformative therapies – and hope – out of the laboratory and into the clinic to save and improve children’s lives.
