| The Peer to Peer Program Support for Newly Diagnosed Celiacs! Newly diagnosed celiacs can be connected with a peer for help in adjusting to a gluten-free lifestyle. Your celiac peer will be able to offer support and assistance with questions you may have about the disease and how to follow a gluten free diet. Your celiac peer is not a doctor and cannot provide medical advice, but can offer you support and 'insider' tips to adapting to this new lifestyle. Meetings are casual and will be held the 2nd Tuesday of each month at a cafe. Look for a table with a sign. Updates on future locations and times will be posted on the website. *** |
