Organisation Summary

Crohn’s & Colitis Australia’s primary purpose is to provide support services, advice and encouragement to people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Whilst CCA doesn’t cure the illness, we can remove some of the burden for people living with IBD and their families. Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, the predominant IBDs, can be diagnosed at any age, though it is most commonly diagnosed in people aged between 15-35 years when education, career and family establishment are at a peak. While we invest in research for a cure, CCA continues to advocate for world best treatments and health services for those living with IBD. Through our programs, we offer education and support for Australia’s growing IBD community of nearly 180,000 people.
