Welcome to Children's Hospital Boston Celiac Support Group
Now what? We can help. With more than 350 member families, the Celiac Support Group welcomes you to join us. Since 1992 we have provided a helping hand for families learning to manage the gluten-free lifestyle. Our members are primarily parents of children with celiac disease. We offer newly diagnosed families a wealth of knowledge and guidelines for raising celiac children.
As a new member, our outreach committee will contact you and give your family support in the form of diet education and a welcome basket filled with gluten- free foods.
Other membership benefits include:
Networking with other parents
A quarterly newsletter covering medical updates, news of the celiac community, gluten-free recipes, educational articles and gluten-free commercial product lists
The Celiac Support Group in partnership with Children's Hospital Boston recently produced an educational DVD entitled "Raising Your Celiac Child, Guidelines for a Gluten-Free Life." More than 2 hours in length, this comprehensive, educational tool provides the viewer with everything they need to know about living a gluten- free lifestyle. The DVD is designed with 12 interactive modules covering a full spectrum of lifestyle issues for celiac disease management
