JA Family Summit

July 11-14, 2024

Come celebrate the 40th anniversary of the JA Family Summit with us. This annual event premiered in 1984 in Keystone, Colorado, bringing together children living with JA and their families to learn, exchange tips, make new friends and have fun.

The annual JA Family Summit (previously known as the National JA Conference) is the Arthritis Foundation’s signature, nationwide event for families affected by juvenile arthritis and childhood rheumatic diseases. This four-day educational conference focuses on health, wellness and fun for families, children/teens (ages 6 months and up) and young adults (ages 18-30) affected by JA and related childhood rheumatic diseases.
