Story of Yes
It started with a Power Pack.
The Mensah family’s connection with the Arthritis Foundation began when their daughter Nyla found herself at a hospital where she received a Power Pack – a backpack full of information and helpful support for kids, teens and parents as they begin their JA journey. Listen to Kwame Mensah and his daughter Nyla talk about how that Power Pack connected them with the Arthritis Foundation, and Nyla’s love for JA camp!
