Hi! I am also looking for a support group in the Ft. Worth area. Have you had any luck? I am in my 50's and also have RA, AS, SS and SLE. I should see if I can make a word out of all those letters!

Thank you Lene. Yes there is a Support System in Texas. Check out www.arthritisintrospective.org. I do not believe there is a support system started in florida yet, but you can locate the closest one to you or begin one yourself

The Arthritis Foundation Auxiliary Group in Dallas is forming a patient to patient support group/buddy system called Joint Parnters and it should be up and running by the end of May 2010. Please call the Arthritis Foundation or see the Auxiliary Group website at: http://afaxdfw.org/ for more information about Joint Partners or Auxiliary Group Events.
NOTE: This website is currently a work in progress but it should be ready by June 2010. If you would like to meet LOTS of people with RA start a team and join the Dallas Arthritis Walk on May 15th www.dallasarthritiswalk.org
