September Arthritis Newsletter

For Rheumatic Disease Awareness and Pain Awareness Month 2022, CDC encourages you to learn more about rheumatic diseases and how recognized evidence-based interventions can help reduce pain and symptoms.

New Feature: Rheumatic Diseases and Pain

Did you know that nearly 1 in 3 US adults with doctor-diagnosed arthritis, a common type of rheumatic disease, have severe joint pain? CDC resources can help you learn more about rheumatic diseases and how to manage pain-related symptoms.

Check out these other CDC features for more information on managing pain.

Osteoarthritis Action Alliance (OAAA) Resources

Osteoarthritis Action Alliance (OAAA) Action Brief for Employers: Nearly 1 in 4 US adults have arthritis. If you are an employer, chances are that some of your employees have arthritis. You can make a positive difference in the lives of your employees with osteoarthritis. 

WATCH: OAAA Lunch & Learn, “Developing an effective infographic for policymakers – the winning submission from the OARSI/OAAA Infographic Competition,” featuring Bridget Graham, Vicky Duong, and Belinda Lawford.

UPCOMING WEBINAR: September 21, 2022: “Mind the Gap: Exploring Nutritional Health and Weight Management Interests of Individuals with Osteoarthritis”, featuring Ashley Buck, MS, who will discuss a recent OAAA study that looked at the gap between what OA patients want to know about nutrition education and what health care professionals think patients need to know. 

Understanding Ableism and Negative Reactions to Disability

Sixty-one million US adults live with a disability and arthritis is a major driver of that. Ableism is prejudice and discrimination aimed at people with disabilities, usually based on the belief that people who have no disabilities are superior. Ableism can take many forms, including assuming that disabled people want or need to be “fixed” and choosing an inaccessible venue for a meeting or event. Learn more from the American Psychological Association (source).
