Living gluten-free doesn’t have to be overwhelming when you have access to the right resources. We’ve gathered trusted local and national organizations to help you and your family navigate celiac disease, gluten sensitivity, and gluten-free living with confidence.
Our mission is to educate and empower those with gluten-related conditions by providing accurate information about gluten-free living. We aim to foster a supportive community where people can share their experiences, learn from one another, and thrive. Our nonprofit also advocates for gluten-free awareness and supports research that may benefit individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Comprehensive Care for Children
The Nationwide Children’s Hospital Celiac Disease Center is dedicated to providing children with accurate diagnoses, educational resources, and ongoing care for celiac disease. The center focuses on improving the health and well-being of pediatric patients through quality treatment plans, research, and family education about dietary changes and long-term care.

Gluten in Medications
Patients with celiac disease need to be cautious about gluten in medications, as it can be hidden in inactive ingredients like excipients. The FDA does not require allergen labeling for medications, making it important to verify gluten content yourself.
GlutenFreeDrugs.com, a resource maintained by a pharmacist, provides valuable information on whether certain medications contain gluten. Be sure to ask your doctor to specify gluten-free prescriptions, and if in doubt, contact the pharmaceutical company directly.
Celiac Disease Care for Adults
The Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University Medical Center is renowned for offering comprehensive medical care for both adults and children with celiac disease. Under the leadership of Dr. Peter Green, the center diagnoses and treats thousands of patients from around the world each year, providing expertise in nutrition and long-term disease management.
As one of the leading centers in the U.S., the Columbia Celiac Disease Center is committed to advancing research and improving patient care for those living with celiac disease.
