Thank you so much for your interest in helping us help families with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA)!
We conducted a research study to understand what parents of teens do to help your kids bounce back from JIA pain to continue to do things that are important to them. Even more importantly, we wanted to hear from teens as well – how do they get through pain flares and keep on going!
The survey is now closed. The results of this international survey will be shared here, on social media, as well as through our partnership with Cassie & Friends and other JIA communities. Please check back for study updates!
My hope is that, with your participation, together we will help teens with JIA and families like yours live their lives with less pain, both physically and mentally.
