National Juvenile Arthritis Conference

National Juvenile Arthritis Conference – Virtual (NEW)
Since 1984, the Arthritis Foundation’s annual National Juvenile Arthritis Conference has been a place where kids, teens, young adults and their families (siblings included) come together to get better informed about juvenile arthritis (JA) and other rheumatic diseases, as well as share stories and exchange tips to make living with the condition easier.

Our top priority is the health and safety of our families. After careful review of the growing seriousness and ongoing uncertainty of the coronavirus (COVID-19), the Arthritis Foundation has made the difficult decision to not host the 2020 JA Conference in person this summer. Instead, we’ll be offering the JA community an online experience with variety of virtual programming July 25-26. 
 
While nothing can take the place of meeting in person, we believe the safety of our community is most important, and our committee is excited to be planning online programming the JA Community can enjoy from the comfort and safety of their homes! We will have a variety of programming to bring a taste of the JA Conference to your home with sessions for parents/caregivers, young adults, teens, kids and siblings.
 
Thank you for your understanding and know the Arthritis Foundation continues to be here for you now and always! We hope you will join us online in July!
