JCC Plus is an Open Access journal that offers a broader view on IBD and its multidisciplinary care, aiming to increase the scope of published research in the field of IBD, as well as the community of readers. Rather than aiming purely for the highest Impact Factor, JCC Plus aims to reach a large number of people to create a community where experiences are shared and ideas exchanged.

In this context, the journal favours interactions between clinicians, researchers, and patient associations, putting energy into organising and feeding forums and exchanges. The format of some publications favours the understanding of the concepts by a broad community of readers, including patients. This implies the broad use of graphical abstracts, and schematic representations.
