Overview

IBDMoms started with a hashtag. The IBDMoms is a safe space for moms with IBD to come and commune, chat and cry, ask and answer, laugh and laugh some more. Founded by health advocates & moms, Brooke Abbott & Amber Tresca, the IBDMoms started from the two friends being able to share experiences and stories with one another, and other moms with IBD, without reservation or misunderstanding. After receiving a great response from their first IBDMoms hosted twitter chat, they decided to build on the idea to help strengthen the community of moms who are often disregarded when it comes to motherhood. IBDMoms is currently a non-profit 501(c)3 that is owned and operated by health equity advocate and patient, Brooke Abbott.
