Austin’s award-winning art portfolio—honored with the top prize at the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards and showcased at Carnegie Hall—was deeply inspired by his triplet brother Jacob’s journey with Crohn’s disease. Their story is a powerful testament to how chronic illness doesn’t just affect one person; it resonates through families, inspiring empathy, creativity, and deep connection. It’s stories like theirs that fuel our Let’s Go There campaign—breaking the silence, building support, and bringing invisible illness into the light.

Now, we invite you to join the movement—share your own story and help us show the world that no one faces these challenges alone. https://bit.ly/4i1fv6M

Flooding Resource Reminder for IBD Patients 💊
If you’ve been affected by recent flooding, know that most Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance plans include Natural Disaster Coverage—this may help you access emergency prescriptions. After the emergency supply, regular refill rules apply, and some costs may be out-of-pocket.

🏡 Homeowner’s insurance might also offer assistance—check with your provider.
📞 Need help? Contact the IBD Help Center at info@crohnscolitisfoundation.org or 1-888-MY-GUT-PAIN (ext. 8).
🔗 Visit crohnscolitisfoundation.org and ready.gov for more info on disaster support and medication preparedness.
