We are a chapter of the Celiac Sprue Association in Louisville, Kentucky. Our mission is to provide information and support to those with Celiac Disease and other forms of gluten intolerance and their families, and to increase the awareness of these conditions in our community.  Our chapter has been active for more than 17 years.  We meet on the second Thursday of every month at the Baptist Hospital East Education Center.  We also hold cooking classes, group dinners, and other events.  Learn more about CSA here or Print an Application to join our group!

Next Meeting

Our next meeting is Thursday, March 13 at 7:00 p.m. at the Baptist Hospital East Education Center, room 2G.  Our speaker this month will be Alan Simon, pharmacist and owner of Simon’s Apothecary in Prospect.  Alan will be speaking on probiotics, enzymes, and other supplements for people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance.  If you’d like, bring a gluten free snack to share.  (Please bring a copy of your recipe for the newsletter, and label the other main allergens in your dish, like milk, nuts, etc., as several of our members have multiple food sensitivities.)

We also offer “Welcome/Extra Help” sessions for new members or anyone who has questions about the GF diet.  These sessions are held before our general meetings.  The next one is Thursday, March 13 at 6:30 p.m. in the Baptist Hospital East Education Center, Room 2J.
