Caregivers play an important role in the disease journey. For Rebecca Kaplan, whose husband, Dan, lives with Crohn's disease, caregiving has been a large part of her life at times. When she went looking for support for herself as a caregiver, what she found was a need for more resources. She went on to not only create a support space for caregivers but also to take a leadership role in the inflammatory bowel disease community that benefits everyone who is touched by these diseases.
