International Foundation for Gastrointestinal Disorders (IFFGD)

The International Foundation for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (IFFGD) is a non-profit, educational and research organization. Their mission is to inform, assist, and support people affected by gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. IFFGD was founded in 1991 by one person struggling with the challenges imposed by a chronic GI disorder. Many others, from all walks of life, have joined with us. We work with patients, families, physicians, nurses, practitioners, investigators, regulators, employers, and others to: broaden understanding about GI disorders, support and encourage research, and improve digestive health in adults and children.
