The Asthma Care Training (ACT) for Kids is a major initiative of the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) to teach children and their families asthma self-management skills and thereby reduce the frequency and severity of asthma episodes. ACT for Kids is designed to complement appropriate medical care and to encourage families to work in concert with their physicians to control children’s asthma. ACT was developed in 1983 and updated in 2003. For more information, visit http://www.aafa.org/display.cfm?id=4&sub=79&cont=430.
