Crohn's and Colitis Canada Chapter Meetings

These illnesses are much more manageable when the community comes together, shares and learns from one another. The Crohns and Colitis Canada chapter meetings are a time for the IBD community to come together to support each other. Our focus is to create awareness of these diseases locally, improve the lives of those livinng with Crohn's and colitis, to grow our volunteer base and to raise funds to invest in research, patient programs, advocacy and awareness.

The meetings are a time to share experiences and both give and receive support. Time will be set aside during each chapter meeting for networking and discussing topics relevant to living with CGrohn's disease and/or ulcerative colitis.

For information on Chapters in the following locations, please contact Teri McGeachie at 250-21-7761 or tmcgeachie@crohnsandcolitis.ca.
