NOTE FROM ALICE BAST
NFCA Executive Director Spring is in the air! For me, this means a time of renewal and new beginnings. At NFCA, we are renewing our commitment to raising awareness of celiac disease by instituting several new programs that we believe will help restore health and reclaim lives for those who suffer with celiac disease. First, we are very excited about a new program that will spread celiac awareness nationwide! CNN has expanded NFCA’s awareness efforts by producing a 30-second public service announcement featuring CNN Newsroom Anchor Heidi Collins. Join our 50 Station Challenge to get the PSA aired nationwide. So far 14 stations have signed on and are actively airing the PSA. NFCA is proud to announce our partnership with Revolution Health, a new health care website that offers a unique approach to health care management. All of us with celiac disease know how important it is to have effective tools available that will allow us to take the appropriate action to manage our health and achieve a healthy lifestyle. Revolution Heath brings together a blend of the best health information, tools, communities, resources and services all in one place. The very popular NFCA Gluten-Free Cooking Spree is our signature program aimed at raising awareness in the healthcare community while featuring gluten-free food created by teams of celebrity chefs, doctors and news reporters. The next Gluten-Free Cooking Spree will be in Washington, DC on May 4th. And don’t miss this month’s Beyond Rice Cakes column where you’ll learn all about how NFCA is using podcasting technology to teach people with celiac disease to cook delicious gluten-free meals! As spring comes to your neighborhood, we hope that you will join us in renewing your commitment to raising awareness and to living a healthy lifestyle. And, we urge you to visit the NFCA website at www.celiaccentral.org for up-to-date information on celiac news and NFCA programs. All the best! Alice |
