Make a difference for Manitobans with Crohn’s and colitis
Join us at the Winnipeg Legislative Assembly this April
We’re looking for 10 passionate Manitobans aged 15 and up to deliver our Shit Just Got Real campaign message to the Manitoba decision makers. Together, we’ll advocate for five key policy priorities:
- Manitoba should adopt “treat to target strategies”
- Monitoring tools, such as faecal calprotectin tests and intestinal ultrasound, should be reimbursed
- Faster reimbursement for new treatment options
- Mental health supports tailored for people with Crohn’s and colitis
- Increased support in workplaces, school and in day-to-day life
Are you passionate about advocating for change? Do you live with Crohn’s or colitis or have a family member affected with these conditions?
