Students at Villanova University Connect Group

Live Yes! Connect Groups offer local connections, education, and empowerment.  Those in the Berkeley community living with arthritis come together for professional- and volunteer-led sessions on topics, as well as fun group activities.

This group is hosted by The Butterfly Effect at Villanova University in Philadelphia. Our club’s goal is to spread awareness about arthritis, lupus, and fibromyalgia by educating and volunteering. We hope to build a community where patients feel heard and seen. 

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 thrive. Let’s all become Champions of Yes together!
