The Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) Society is a 501(c)(3) nonpartisan organization that deliberately prioritizes diversity. The NEC Society works to build an ever more inclusive community, internal and external of the organization. The NEC Society aims to ensure that all individuals and groups touched by NEC see themselves reflected within the organization and feel a strong sense of belonging. The NEC Society intentionally supports the empowerment of women, people from diverse backgrounds, the LGBTQIA+ community, people with disabilities, and groups that have been historically marginalized.

We recognize that it is not enough to simply value diversity and inclusion. The NEC Society is dedicated to transforming our values into action, and we are constantly working to improve. We are stronger together. Together we are better equipped to build a more just, equitable world without this devastating disease. You can join the global NEC community that’s bringing together families, healthcare providers, and diverse stakeholders to #preventNEC
