Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) impacts some people more than others.
In fact, about 70% of people living with RA are women, according to the World Health Organization.
That makes it critical to promote education, resources, and support for women when it comes to treating and managing RA.
With this in mind, you’re invited to watch “Thriving with RA: Essential Tips for Women’s Health and Wellness,” an online educational session that will empower women with RA to take control of their pain and health, helping them understand treatment options and know when and how to speak up to get the care they deserve.
Join us to learn practical ways to improve pain, fatigue, and depression and find support tailored to you—because no one should have to face RA alone.
Panelist Victoria LeGarde will talk about her treatment journey with RA starting when she experienced her first flare-up at age 18 on the day of her high school graduation.
Now 41, Victoria has been managing her condition for 22 years with the support of a local rheumatologist. Victoria, a Native American and registered tribal member, brings her unique perspective as a person of color to her work and her journey with rheumatoid arthritis.
