Patient and Caregiver Training Programs

At the heart of our community model are community leaders and peer educators; patients and caregivers who have stepped up to help run our groups and connect members to accurate, up-to-date information about treatment options.

PALTOWN currently offers 2 training programs for patients and caregivers. Our 2021 programs are largely virtual, hosted on our COLONTOWN University platform, although we are holding an in-person Leadership Summit in December!
