I highly recommend this book be on every crohnies shelf. Even if right now you are alright and not struggling with discrimination, insurance denial or employment and disability issues this book is a good one to refer to when needed.

This book written by Jennifer Jaff explains our rights as patients in the U.S. and is written with IBD patients in mind. It can be applied to all disabilities though. Sadly Jennifer Jaff died this past year of crohns related complications but the book and her organization continue.
