Background Statement

Founded in 1948, the Arthritis Foundation is the largest and most trusted nonprofit organization dedicated to conquering the needs and challenges of the more than 50 million Americans with arthritis. Arthritis is a serious and growing health crisis, affecting people of all ages, races and ethnic groups-and it weakens our economy. It's America's #1 cause of disability-striking one in every five adults, 300,000 children and countless families-and these numbers are expected to grow. Unless reversed, 67 million (one in four) Americans will have arthritis or a related condition by 2030.
