When Angela Smith, who lives with Crohn’s disease, shared her story at the Foundation’s bipartisan Capitol Hill briefing today, her words deeply resonated. The discussion covered new developments in early disease detection, potential pathways to prevention, and the latest on the correlation between ultra-processed foods and IBD. This event was supported in part by Pfizer and Takeda Pharmaceuticals.

Last week, staff and volunteers from the Southern Texas Chapter joined nearly 250 of their peers from chapters across the country for a meaningful two days in Denver for training, connecting, networking, celebrating, and dreaming!
We leaned into the idea that we are Stronger Together and we'll go Further Together. Something that is so very, very true. It is the power and strength of our IBD Community, coming together, that is moving things forward for patients everywhere.
We were also celebrating the accomplishments of 2025. It was with great pride that we received a 5 Star Chapter award, were recognized for our special event, Women of Distinction Winter Ball, coming in as the 10th largest Special Event in the country, and for exceeding NET revenue by the 4th largest percentage in the country for the same. That all took teamwork, dedication, and grit - a partnership of staff and volunteers that is remarkable.
We can't wait for what's next!
💪 Stronger Together. Further Together!
