Juvenile Arthritis Awareness Month
September 7 @ 9:06 pm
Juvenile Arthritis Awareness Month is observed in July and sponsored by the Arthritis Foundation.
Juvenile Arthritis Awareness Month is a time to increase awareness of juvenile arthritis, promote the need for a cure, and spur advocacy on behalf of those suffering from juvenile arthritis. Juvenile arthritis is not the same as grandma’s aches and pains. Children with juvenile arthritis suffer from various autoimmune forms of arthritis. Their body’s immune system attacks their joints, causing swelling, stiffness and permanent damage.
