To improve the lives through leadership in the prevention, control and cure of arthritis and related diseases.

The Arthritis Foundation is the world's largest private, not-for-profit organization dedicated exclusively to improving the lives of people with arthritis. Currently, arthritis is the leading source of disability in the United States; it is our cause to eliminate arthritis as this cause.

Arthritis affects almost every family in our country. There are more than 100 forms of arthritis. Nevada has approximately 500,000 adults living with arthritis.

At the Arthritis Foundation office in Nevada we work with programs and advocacy to support the mission of the organization.
