NCSG sponsors three information meetings in February, April/May, and September/October. NCSG also hosts a holiday potluck or dining event the first Saturday in December, as well as a Summer Potluck Picnic get-together. The general meetings feature a local or national speaker or event that addresses current issues and topics related to celiac disease, including celiac authors, researchers, clinicians and medical advisers. Our members are also a great resource at every meeting as we share our experiences in cooking, eating out, and shopping. At the meetings, members are asked to contribute a gluten-free snack to share. Beverages are provided.
