One in every 200 people suffer daily with digestive diseases. Throughout the year, Take Steps enables patient families to join together with their local community to build visibility and awareness about Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis while raising critical funds. Participants will enjoy a casual 2 mile stroll around McAllister Park as they are cheered on loudly! Prior to the walk, there will be music, food, games and an opportunity to explore the mission and advocacy area. In addition, youngsters will have a blast at The Kid's Zone, complete with moonwalks, face painting, temporary tattoo parlor and more.
Many of the 1.4 million Americans with these diseases suffer in silence. Take Steps brings together this community in a fun and energetic atmosphere, encouraging them to make noise and be heard.
