Welcome!
Thank you for visiting our site and for your interest in our Chapter. The mission of the Arthritis Foundation is to improve lives through leadership in the prevention, control and cure of arthritis and related diseases.
Most likely you or someone close to you is one of the nearly 66 million Americans who has arthritis. Our Chapter offers various programs and services to help people with arthritis cope with their disease. Some of the things we offer include exercise programs, educational programs, and support groups. We also sponsor special events throughout the year, like the Arthritis Walk and the Jingle Bell Run, to raise money and to raise awareness of this disease in the hopes of one day finding a cure.
Please contact us today to find out more about how our programs and services can help you -- or how you can help others -- take control of this disease.
We need your help! Let your voice be heard.
