Programs & Research
Arthritis Australia advocates to government, business, industry and community leaders to improve care, management, support and quality of life for people with arthritis.
In addition to developing a consumer led, proactive policy and advocacy agenda, we participate in government consultations and prepare submissions to government agencies on a range of issues affecting people with arthritis.
Along with education and assistance, Arthritis Australia spearheads the effort to further our knowledge of arthritis and to search for cures.
Much of our work is directed toward raising funds to provide grants, fellowships and scholarships. Arthritis Australia conducts an annual research grants program open to both national and international researchers.
