Our mission is to improve the quality of life for BIPOC who are affected by IBD, Digestive Disorders and associated Chronic Illnesses; through Community, Research, Education, and Advocacy.

Community Group Tasks

Confident Conversations HCP List

As a reminder, this task is so we can build a working document of HCPs by location and offer their patients COGI resources. This will become a running document through the year so we know which HCPs are open to a partnership.
.
To start, I would like each ambassador to search and then enter a minimum of five (5) submissions per state. If you find more, I welcome them. These HCPs can be in GI, Primary Care, Pediatrics, etc. We’ve also expanded our disease spaces so while our main base in IBD, we are open to HCPs that work with IBS, Celiac, Short Bowel Syndrome, or Colorectal Cancer patients. And in smaller/more rural areas, you may find an HCP who focuses on all.
 
To make sure there are no overlaps, please review the states you’ll be searching:
Ayana – Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota
Dahlen – Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico
Jasia – Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri
Kaylaa’ – Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island
Krista – Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas
Kristie – Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Colorado, California
Mariama – Maryland, Delaware, Washington D.C., West Virginia
Michael – Ohio, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey
Patricia – Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming
Renika – North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama
Sage – Vermont, New York, Michigan, Arkansas
.

External Community Events List

Each ambassador should search and then enter a minimum of three (3) submissions per state. If you find more, I welcome them. Again, because we’ve also expanded our disease spaces, we are open to events that have a broad community focus or events that are focused on specific disease spaces like IBD, IBS, Celiac, Short Bowel Syndrome, or Colorectal Cancer.
