We are excited to announce the dates of the 2023 Camp Purple Live Parent & Caregivers' Seminar.

The seminar is tailored specifically for parents and caregivers of children living with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. It aims at providing an understanding of IBD, as well as tools to support your children's well-being.

The seminar features sessions is led by physicians, dietitians, surgeons, nurses, and psychologists who will also discuss the latest treatments, therapies, and  answer questions. One of the most important aspects of our seminar is the opportunity for parents to connect and network with others who are facing similar challenges and concerns. By sharing their experiences, parents can gain a better understanding of their child's illness and learn new coping strategies.
