Our Purpose

IAMIBS Community

The impact of IBS is social, economic, and personal. It's a community challenge that requires community solutions. Our purpose is to recognize those challenges and facilitate solutions.

The IAMIBS Community expands the definition of those "affected by IBS" to include all of those affected directly or indirectly by IBS, such as: sufferers, family members, friends, coworkers, employers, educators, insurers, healthcare professionals, regulators, elected officials, researchers, manufacturers, and community businesses.
