We’re excited to announce our winners of “Empowerment on the Move” — a travel grant that offered 2 extraordinary people the chance to attend the Equity in GI Conference hosted by Color of Gastrointestinal Illnesses in Atlanta. This transformative event takes on raising awareness for IBD, obesity, celiac, colorectal cancer, and more. More to come on what promises to be an unforgettable experience for our winners! A big thanks to Kenneth Rainin Foundation for making these grants possible!

🚨 Mark your calendars because ABGH Summit is back 5.01.26 in Chicago. See you there!

🎓🤎 We’re about to go to a “Different World” with COGI University. Inspired by the iconic show that transformed the media landscape of Black education and professionalism, this event will take on the curriculum of IBD, colorectal cancer, obesity, and celiac disease by using our voices to manifest a world rooted in culturally competent care.
