Live Yes! Connect Groups offer local connections, education and empowerment. Adults living with arthritis from our local community come together for professional- and volunteer-led sessions on a variety of topics, as well as fun group activities.

We offer a safe place of understanding and encouragement for both people living with arthritis and their loved ones. Group participants support one another, develop friendships, share ideas and thoughts and obtain information. Join us and become your own self-advocate, develop self-management skills and learn how to not just survive life with arthritis but to thrive.
