IgG4ward! PeachJAM Recap: Gratitude, Connection & Hope

Thank You for Joining the IgG4ward! PeachJAM

“Gratitude” is the word that comes most prominently to mind as we review our second patient-facing event, the IgG4ward! PeachJAM, in Atlanta, Georgia. What an incredible couple of days! Both were filled with connection, education, and HOPE for the IgG4-RD community.

From inspiring sessions with world-leading experts to heartfelt conversations in between sessions— or while enjoying a meal together— this gathering was a true celebration of the strength, resilience and compassion that define our community.

A Special Thank You

We are especially grateful to Dr. Arezou Khosroshahi for welcoming us so warmly and hosting the IgG4ward! PeachJAM at the beautiful Emory Conference Center and Hotel.

Her commitment to the IgG4-RD community—through her leadership, clinical care and advocacy—was recognized during the PeachJAM as she received the IgG4ward! Award of Hope.
