Agenda and Registration

Crohn's and Colitis Canada is excited to introduce the Volunteer Learning and Development program, which replaces our annual GUTS Volunteer Conference. This new one-hour program offered multiple times over the year provides an opportunity to learn, express our gratitude to our dedicated volunteers, and offer opportunities for networking.

Volunteer Learning and Development Session

We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Volunteer Learning and Development session on November 25 from 7:00–8:30 p.m. ET, where we’ll come together to learn, connect, and grow as a community.

This session will feature an introduction to Crohn’s and Colitis Connect, our online community designed to bring people together from across Canada. Meet others affected by inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, find support, share experiences, and stay connected.

You'll also have the opportunity to network with fellow volunteers and share ideas to help make an even greater impact together.
