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.
Our groups motto is "In Tune with Autoimmune". A place to tune into yourself and others, to give and receive support, to ask and answer questions, and to find the strength to live life to the fullest.

We are trying something new! This group has met a couple of times as a very small trial group to connect outside of our larger groups, and we're ready to open it up to more people, an RSVP is helpful to know if we need to reserve the party room, but more importantly is that you show up!

My daughter (10) was just diagnosed with polyarticular JIA. Hoping to connect with other moms here in MN.
Just wanted to post this here as well...
What a busy summer it's been! The support group picnic is just around the corner! I just wanted to send out a reminder with all of the details. The picnic is going to be set up as a potluck, so please feel welcome to bring a dish to share, if you are not able to bring anything please just come and enjoy the company. Arthritis and Rheumatology Consultants will be providing burgers and chips, please let me know if you have any dietary restrictions, I am vegan and am bringing my own burger, so I'd be happy more than happy to throw an extra in my bag. Grills will be provided if you'd like to grill something of your own. I also plan to bring watermelon to share. This invitation is meant to be extended to family! We won't be discussing any specific topics, just celebrating summer, getting to know each other, and finding support through each other. Now for the details...
The picnic will begin at 4:00pm at the Rosland Park Picnic Shelter the address is 4300 W 66th Street Edina, MN 55435. We have the space rented from 4pm-8pm, however i will need to leave by around 7/7:30 to bring my little one home to bed. If you have any questions you can email me back at [email protected]. If you have trouble with directions, getting a ride, or anything like that please reach out as I would hate for transportation to be the only issue. My personal cell is (612) 718-6240, if you need help with directions, feel free to reach out, otherwise if it's not urgent, I prefer email communication. I can't wait to see you all there!
