Welcome to all our new followers. We thought it would be good to give a little reminder about our support packs in case you haven't yet requested one for your child.
Our support packs are called "A Little Box of Hope" and can be requested at jarproject.org/hope (UK only)

Do you, your #teachers, or #parents, have questions about how to help #KidsWithArthritis get the most out of their time at #school?
@ArthritisKidsSA has compiled a useful guide to improve #SchoolAwareness of juvenile #RheumaticDisease: arthritiskids.co.za/schools/

A diagnosis of ‘juvenile’ idiopathic arthritis remains for life. It does not get renamed to other forms of arthritis in adulthood. It’s important to be aware of this so people can get the right treatment and care if their arthritis flares in adulthood. #WORDDay2023 @WORDDay_org

There is a huge misconception in society that #arthritis only affects older people.
Together we can bust that myth!

What does #JIA stand for? Juvenile means that the arthritis began before the age of 16.
Idiopathic means that the cause is unknown.
Arthritis means that one or more joints are inflamed.

Due to their rarity, #paediatric rheumatic conditions are often unknown to health-care providers, causing substantial delays before a correct diagnosis is made. Help us spread the word that children can get #RheumaticDiseases too: wordday.org/
