Brochures and Booklets

Crohn’s and Colitis Canada has patient education brochures to address a range of topics relevant to help people affected by Crohn’s and colitis to navigate issues such as treatment and medication, diet, intimacy, fertility and pregnancy, ostomy care, and more.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, there is a significant delay in processing print orders. As a result, our brochures are temporarily unavailable for print orders. We will update this page once our brochures are available for print orders. In the meantime, if you would like to request an individual or bulk-order of brochures from Crohn's and Colitis Canada, or require any assistance, please contact us at .
