Introducing the Canadian Celiac Association's Growing Up Celiac Resource

A diagnosis of celiac disease or gluten sensitivity can come as a shock to many families. Often children are the first within the family to be identified as having this inherited disease.

The Canadian Celiac Association has created a resource that offers tips from fellow parents, information to help families navigate the gluten-free diet and advocate for their child.

Please share these tips with extended family, friends, daycare providers and teachers to help a celiac child feel included, positive and safe.
