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.

As we kick off the school year, it's a good time to start new routines! While exciting, it also can be daunting and overwhelming – especially for those of us living with chronic pain. Let’s come together to kick off the school year and share with one another how we manage stress, keep pain in check, and divulge our #1 tip for sticking with new routines!
Hope to see you soon!

Hi everyone! I am working to secure a couple of speakers for upcoming events this Fall - one virtual, one in person. If we have someone come and talk about staying motivated and moving during disease changes, is that a topic you'd be interested in? Any feedback on topics you'd like to hear more about would be greatly appreciated!
Did you know the Arthritis Foundation also has National Connect Groups? Our particular group is specific to St. Louis but don't be shy if you want to attend National meetings as well! Here are some upcoming sessions in April - feel free to sign up:
See you in May at the Walk!
Hi everyone! The annual Walk to Cure Arthritis is scheduled for May 13 this year and is shaping up to be an excellent event! This year's Walk will be held at Tilles Park and consists of a short 1-mile walk at any pace. It's a great day to meet local families and individuals that are carrying a lot of the same challenges as many of us! I encourage everyone to sign up - it's a donation-only event (no registration fee) and truly focused on raising awareness and funds for the AF!
I hope to meet many of you in person at this event! Sign up today: www.walktocurearthritis.org/stlouis
Hello! I'd like to get a virtual meet and greet scheduled for March. If you think you're interested in attending something like that, can you reply to this message with what days of the week / times work best for you? Thank you!
Sure! I just posted something but please feel free to add more information to it as you see fit! The Walk is one of my favorite events of the year - I'm looking forward to May!
Hi Carly! I am the Volunteer Engagement Chair and the Chair for Walk to Cure for the St. Louis area. I would love to help out with this online forum. Can we post some information about the Walk to Cure in May?
Has anyone taken Kevzarra and what has been your experience? I just started.
