In the United States and around the globe, May 16 is recognized as Celiac Awareness Day, and Beyond Celiac has joined the #ShineALightOnCeliac campaign to help spread awareness.
As part of the campaign, several organizations including Coeliac Australia, Canadian Celiac Association, Coeliaque Québec, Coelicak UK, and Celíacos do Brasil agreed to light up world landmarks in green to raise awareness about gluten-free food insecurity, the need for research, and other celiac disease-related issues.
