Working together, we will not only raise awareness of arthritis, but will help change the way arthritis research and public health is funded and health care policies are made.

The Washington Post has featured our very own Arthritis Foundation Advocate, 9 year old Eric Terry from Woodbridge, VA as he walked the halls of Congress with the other 400 advocates at the AF Advocacy & Kids' Summit.
