Arthritis Foundation Is Spreading Arthritis Awareness To All Corners Of The WorldCaring For Patients, Advocating Against Arthritis Is A Part Of Its Mission The vision of the National Arthritis Foundation is to care for patients, advocate against arthritis, conduct research to combat arthritis as well as to educate patients and the public on arthritis. It has approximately one thousand members that represent all walks of life that include those having arthritis, caregivers as well as those members that are concerned with arthritis, as also health professionals. To oversee the work of the foundation, there is an elected general council as well as an executive committee. In America, the Arthritis Foundation is a non-profit nationwide health organization that takes greater control of arthritis through taking efforts to prevent, control as well as cure arthritis, which is the nation's leading cause of disability. In America, it has 500,000 volunteers as well as 150 service points that offer many programs and services to help people fight and take control of their arthritis. In addition, it provides education and information through its in-depth booklets and books detailing how to cope and live with arthritis. 
From 1948 up to the present, the Arthritis Foundation has pumped in more than three hundred million dollars on research and supports over two thousand scientists, physicians as well as health professionals that lead the way in cutting edge arthritis research. With an estimated seventy million Americans suffering from arthritis, the Foundation also ensures that public policy as well as advocacy efforts are introduced and passed to support its vision. Since arthritis is the leading cause of disability in America, it is little wonder that the Arthritis Foundation has a stated mission to prevent as well as cure arthritis as well as its related diseases. Through its magazine, Arthritis Today, which is published six times in a year, it sends the message across loud and clear - arthritis is to be checked and defeated without sparing any effort. |
