You’re not alone: Athabasca has a supportive Crohn’s and colitis community, made up of people with inflammatory bowel disease, families, volunteers, and more. Together, we share experiences, raise funds at the Gutsy Walk and heighten awareness.

There are an estimated 35 people with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis in Athabasca. We understand the challenges you and your family may be facing – because we face them, too.
