Pathways is your chance to learn more! Registration is free and includes access to our keynote presentations, general sessions and breakout sessions. All you need to do is book your travel and hotel.

Get Inspired. Be Empowered. Spread Hope.

The Arthritis Foundation’s 2027 Pathways Conference will go the extra distance to help our volunteers be the best they can be through inspiring speakers, breakthrough insights, and celebrated stories of impact.

  • Learn how the Arthritis Foundation equips volunteers to lead locally and amplify our mission where they live.
  • Hear how arthritis affects the whole body, and what the Foundation offers patients today in support and resources.
  • Discover how important grassroot efforts are in the community and how to implement those efforts

Attendees will need to provide their own transportation to the hotel from the Boston Logan International Airport (BOS).

We look forward to seeing you!
