The Annual Iowa Celiac Conference is sponsored by several non-profit Celiac Support Groups, providing support to celiac and gluten-intolerant people of all ages. Each year, the Iowa Celiac Conference provides a variety of speakers to educate and inform attendees about advancements in research, new products available to make a celiac life-style easier to cope with, and the opportunity to network with others who are living without gluten in their diet or the diet of a family member or friend.
