The Westchester Celiac Sprue Support Group invites you to attend our next meeting:

Sunday, March 30 - 2:00 pm
Phelps Memorial Hospital - Auditorium
Sleepy Hollow, NY

The program will focus on the challenges of gluten-free living and eating - and offer the tools and techniques for making this easier and more successful. It is a program designed for young and old and was developed in response to the many requests we have for help with “living” as well as eating gluten-free.

Topics will include:

-       What is your personality type and how does this affect your ability to cope?
-       Dealing with social embarrassment
-       Are we outcasts or are we special?
-       Dispelling fantasies (will I spoil an event for everyone/myself?)
-       How to make sure celiac disease does not dominate your life or an evening out
-       Dining with the boss, friends and family
-       The family and celiac disease (the challenges of visiting in-laws, etc.)
-       The challenges of dining out (buffets and restaurants that don’t cook from scratch)
-       Menu essentials
