About
Candid Colon is a new group on The University of Kentucky's campus partnering with the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation dedicated to promoting understanding of Inflammatory Bowel Disorders (IBD). Students will be provided with a safe space to voice concerns about living on campus with a chronic illness and will be able to share experiences that may help other students. Club organizers will provide information on healthy living tips at each meeting, along with sharing and developing a safe space in order to stimulate discussion. We aim to cultivate a community of support in order to assist students on their way to learning how to live a college lifestyle with a chronic illness.
Never let the things you cannot do prevent you from doing the things you can do.
Our Mission
As a student organization, we aim to foster a community to allow students to find others like them.
Our Vision
Slowly we hope to assist students on their journey in learning how to cope with chronic illnesses on their own, while providing them with the support and tools to do so.
