THE ARTHRITIS FOUNDATION in Honor of Analisa Rojas, our niece who has been battling (and thriving) with Juvenile Arthritis since the age of only 18 months.
Too many children live with the restraints of arthritis pain and the disease’s effects not only on their joints, but also on their organs and systems. With the added burden of frequent doctor visits and daily living limitations, the emotional toll of childhood arthritis and other rheumatic conditions is significant. Despite significant progress due to the use of biologics to treat juvenile arthritis (JA), more research and treatments are urgently needed. Arthritis Foundation is committed to research investments that are guided by the needs of JA patients and their families.
