Welcome to Alabama
Part of the Southeast Region
Local Leadership Councils
Our mission is vital, and it cannot be fulfilled unless many join together with common goals. As a volunteer-driven organization, the Arthritis Foundation relies on the time, expertise and resources of volunteers at many levels.
Our local Leadership Councils work with staff and fellow volunteers to lead the way in the implementation of the Southeast Region’s strategic direction. We recognize and appreciate their commitment to make the pain and limitations of arthritis unacceptable in every community we serve.
