IBD Kidz is a virtual support program for pediatric IBD patients

As PAC member, Leela, wrote in her introductory post to the ICN blog, “It makes me feel more confident knowing that I’m not the only one struggling and there are other people like me.” Support and connection that allows people to express themselves, to be seen and understood, and to feel less alone is so important. In the interest of ensuring everyone looking for connection and support along their IBD journey can access it, we are highlighting IBD Kidz – a Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation program offering “age-appropriate support groups just for kids and teens living with IBD. These groups help young patients connect with peers, feel less alone, and gain confidence in managing their condition.”
