At JA Family Summit, kids get a hands-on, fun experience that mirrors their own juvenile arthritis care — and it's always a hit with the kids! At the Panda Clinic, generously provided by Alpha Omicron Pi Fraternity, children check their panda’s blood pressure, give their panda a shot and learn about health in a playful, empowering way.

It’s always a favorite part of Summit, giving kids confidence, connection and a sense of understanding about their own care — while parents attend sessions, network and gather resources.

You’re invited to join us on Tuesday, March 17, 2026 at 8:00 PM EST for a FREE virtual event designed especially for parents of children with juvenile arthritis (JA)!

Dr. Bridges is passionate about empowering JA patients, building life skills, and ensuring a smooth transition into adult care.

This session will focus on practical strategies to help prepare your child for independence at every stage. Parents of JA kids of all ages are encouraged to attend — and bring your questions!

Knowledge is power — especially after a juvenile arthritis diagnosis.

If you’ve ever left an appointment with more questions than answers, this episode is for you. In “Juvenile Arthritis Explained,” the Live Yes! With Arthritis podcast walks through what JA is (and isn’t), common symptoms, treatment approaches and how families can move forward with confidence.

It’s a supportive, easy-to-understand conversation designed to help parents and caregivers feel informed and empowered — no medical degree required. 🎧

There’s nothing quite like JA Camp. 💚

At JA Camp, kids and teens with juvenile arthritis get to do what every kid deserves to do — make friends, try new adventures and just be kids. From canoeing and climbing to campfires and confidence-building moments, camp is a place where arthritis doesn’t hold the spotlight.

If you have a child living with juvenile arthritis, this is their place to belong. Learn more and register today at https://arthr.org/3Y29U7e.
