About
Since 1948, the Arthritis Foundation has led the fight to conquer arthritis, which now affects nearly 60 million adults and 300,000 children in the United States as well as their families and loved ones.
We provide ways for you to take control of arthritis by connecting you with others who understand the challenges.
With your help, we shape and influence health care policies and laws at both state and federal levels.
With your insights, we make sure effective arthritis treatments are being developed while also pursuing a cure.
We envision a world where all people with arthritis are living a life without limits.
The Arthritis Foundation is boldly pursuing a cure for America's #1 cause of disability while championing the fight to conquer arthritis with life-changing science, resources, advocacy and community connections.
Explore the Arthritis Foundation’s 2025–2030 Strategic Direction to see how bold actions in care, research, advocacy, and partnerships aim to improve life for millions. An important read for patients, changemakers and allies.
Our community of arthritis families and the Arthritis Foundation stands behind us every step of the way. We don’t ever want another family to have to go through the two lonely years we did thinking that nobody else’s child has this.
