The Short Gut Syndrome Family Support Group was created to provide parents and families of children with short gut syndrome with support and resources to help them to become better advocates and caregivers for their children through discussion and education about short gut syndrome, treatments, and therapies.

We have grown to become one of the leading online support resources for Short Bowel Syndrome.

Anyone who knows and loves someone with Short Gut Syndrome, or a similar diagnosis, is welcome. We hope that as we connect we can improve quality of care and quality of life for patients living with Short Bowel Syndrome and those who love them.
