CANLOGOF (1)02

CAN! was started in 2004 by a small group of arthritis patients who were frustrated by the lack of public awareness about arthritis and related diseases, and by the lack of advocacy for arthritis patients.  We believe that if the general public is made aware that arthritis is more than “a few sore joints” and that arthritis strikes children and young adults, more money will be contributed to research and patients will be empowered to seek treatment for their arthritis.

We are motivated to educate the public that arthritis is not just an older person’s disease, and that although we look “normal”, we don’t always feel that way.

We have learned from personal experience the value in our own personal health advocacy, and the value in public awareness about the frequency and severity of arthritis.

As an arthritis patient, no matter what type of arthritis you have, the best thing you can do is become aware of your condition and the treatments available for it.  This enables you to become an equal partner in your healthcare, which ultimately will enable you to receive the best care.
