When someone is diagnosed with Crohn’s or Colitis, the medical aspect is just one piece of the puzzle. The emotional toll—confusion, fear, embarrassment, and even shame—can be overwhelming, especially in a community where talking about digestive health isn’t so common.
At JCCSG, we believe no one should ever have to face IBD alone.
Our support services go beyond the physical. Whether it’s connecting newly diagnosed patients with experienced mentors, hosting group sessions where people can speak freely, or simply being a listening ear, we provide a network of care rooted in understanding and respect.
Many of our members say that meeting others who “get it” was life-changing. Suddenly, they weren’t alone in their struggles. They had someone to call before a procedure, to talk to after a tough day, or to ask what to eat when nothing feels safe.
Support builds strength. And strength builds healing. If you—or someone you love—is struggling silently, reach out. JCCSG is here to walk with you.
