Our mission is to raise awareness about Rheumatoid Arthritis and other autoimmune diseases, especially among younger individuals, while providing unwavering support.

Understanding Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues, causing inflammation, pain, and damage to joints. This immune response treats healthy tissues as if they were harmful invaders. Managing RA often involves a combination of immune-suppressing medications, drugs, and physical therapy. Balancing rheumatologist appointments, treatment plans, and family responsibilities can be overwhelming.
