Chrohns’ and Colitis Support Group

My wife and I are facilitating Long Islands only adult support group for the CCFA.  Our meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month at 6:15pm at the Wang Center located on the Stony Brook University campus.

The Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA) is a non-profit, volunteer-driven organization dedicated to finding the cures for Crohn’s Disease and ulcerative colitis. It was founded in 1967 by Irwin M. and Suzanne Rosenthal, William D. and Shelby Modell, and Henry D. Janowitz, M.D.

Since our founding over four decades ago, CCFA has remained at the forefront of research in Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Today, we fund cutting-edge studies at major medical institutions, nurture investigators at the early stages of their careers, and finance underdeveloped areas of research. In addition, our educational workshops and programs, along with our scientific journal, Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, enable medical professionals to keep pace with this rapidly growing field. We are very proud that theNational Institutes of Health has commended us for “uniting the research community and strengthening IBD research.”

In 2019 I was introduced to a whole new world. Decades working in corporate America has made it very clear that a combnination of passion, talent and perserverance will ultimately lead to a successful career. In 2019 I lead a panel discussion which led me to the idea that a Long Island Motorpsorts Park would be a career catalyst for our High School students. Virtually every activity I am involved with is further the idea that exposing our students to a wide variety of career possiblities. Identify how you can make a long term difference and please share.
