Would you like to contribute to the betterment of your local community? The Arthritis Foundation Louisiana is actively looking for compassionate and dedicated volunteers who can provide a secure and supportive space for those affected by arthritis.

This opportunity allows individuals to connect with others who share their experiences and gain valuable insight about the condition. Your participation can make a significant difference in the lives of those living with arthritis.

Arthritis Foundation Connect Groups are peer-led support groups, social, and educational groups that regularly meet in person or virtually to provide connections that are inclusive to adults living with all types of arthritis and rheumatic diseases or to parents/guardians of children with juvenile arthritis.

Facilitators bring people together to provide:

  • Social and informative events and activities focused on peer support group and positive coping strategies.
  • Understanding and encouragement for both people living with arthritis and their loved ones
  • Strategies supporting members become self-advocates, develop self-management skills and learn how to not just survive life with arthritis but to thrive!

Facilitators abide by the Live Yes! Connect Group Guidelines and Terms & Conditions, practice ethical confidentiality standards and represent Arthritis Foundation in a professional, respectful, and positive manner.
