We look to empower and motivate connect group members into actions that create more choices and control over their life with arthritis.
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 place of understanding and encouragement for both people living with arthritis and their loved ones. Group participants become self-advocates, develop self-management skills and learn how to not just survive life with arthritis but to thrive.We look to empower and motivate connect group members into actions that create more choices and control over their life with arthritis.

Hi Everyone, I am also new to the group and I wondering if someone might be able to recommend a Rheumatologist in Rhode Island that they think is excellent. I haven’t had the best luck and am struggling to get a diagnosis/treatment. I have all the symptoms of RA (for 3 years and progressing, including noticeable changes to my hands (knuckles) and feet, so need treatment. I was diagnosed w FM, but it’s clear there is more going on. My labs came back normal. My guess is I am seronegative. In any case I would be so grateful for a recommendation. Many thanks,
Hello MC
I am the new facilitator of the RI group for the Arthritis Foundation. How are you doing? It's clearing been 4 years since you posted so I hope you have found a rheumatologist or don't have it!
