📣 Kids with IBD deserve better treatment options.
Right now, only TWO types of IBD treatment are approved for children under 20 — far fewer than the options available to adults with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.

That's not enough. Kids deserve access to proven drugs that can dramatically improve their lives.

Tell your member of Congress to call on the FDA to speed up its review and approval process for pediatric IBD treatments. It takes 30 seconds 👇

Calling all young artists ages 7–18! The Crohn's & Colitis Foundation wants your original T-shirt design for Awareness Week (December 1–7). Three finalist designs will be selected, then the IBD community votes to pick the winner — whose artwork will be featured on this year's official T-shirt, plus a shout-out across our campaign and social media.

Theme: What It Takes to Live With IBD: Strength, family, friends, teachers, doctors, hope — show us what it takes for YOU to live and keep going with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis, through one powerful image or a few meaningful symbols that read clearly on a T-shirt.

Submit your design (PDF or JPG) to [email protected] by September 14. Include your name, age, and contact info. Good luck!
