I was so amazed when I arrived at the event because I could instantly see just how much work went into things. Throughout the event, I felt so validated and loved by everyone. It was such an amazing opportunity to learn more, and I absolutely did.
Color of Crohn’s and Chronic Illness (COCCI) is expanding our demands for equity in the GI/healthcare space. IBD intersects with many other diseases, like stomach and colon cancer, when under diagnosed and mis-treated. And understanding the landscape through partnership pushes our quest for equity further along, faster. We need all stakeholders in this ecosystem to stop and assess the change we must see and how to create it for the sake of Black and Brown patients. Through funding, education, engagement, community, and calls to action, our partners are very important pieces to the puzzle that will shift patient care and their quality of life.
