We are your local source for help and hope in Mecklenburg County, NC!

Did you know that arthritis is the leading cause of disability, second only to heart disease? More families are affected by arthritis than by any other illness.

The incidence of arthritis is expected to rise at an alarming rate, approaching 67 million Americans by 2030. In Mecklenburg County over 177,000 people are affected by arthritis. Our community faces the burden of increasing healthcare needs for those affected by arthritis. The National Arthritis Action Plan boldly asserts that, "the public health challenge before us is to insure the delivery of effective interventions to those at the greatest risk of arthritis and its implications."

Arthritis Services' Community Arthritis Project, meets this public health burden head on.
