Chron’s & Colitis Foundation of America

www.ccfa.org

Chron’s Disease and ulcerative colitis are inflammatory bowel diseases that can afflict teenager, young adults and adults as well. Their website provides a wealth of resources and information for your and your families. In Illinois, they have an annual Parent’s and Kids Workshop (usually in March) with expert panel sessions to get all of your questions answered.  If your child is diagnosed with this condition, feel free to contact Kim Leistner for local support group information.

    I don’t think there is a local chapter. The state CCFA group is a good place to start, and they have a summer camp and annual conference with youth breakouts.
