Welcome to the

Greater Chicagoland Young Adult Connect Group

Chicagoland, Illinois
5 Members

A support group for young adults with arthritis, ages 22-36, who are navigating having arthritis while balancing education, work, family life, and friendships. We invite those who would like to find a supportive community of other young adults that have arthritis within the Chicagoland area that can provide empowerment, support, education, and expert speakers. 

We offer a place of understanding and encouragement for young adults living with arthritis and their loved ones. Participants become self-advocates, develop self-management skills, and learn how to not just survive life with arthritis but to thrive.
