The 2012 Arthritis Walk

About 50 million people have self-reported, doctor-diagnosed arthritis, including nearly 300,000 children. Each year, the Arthritis Foundation holds Arthritis Walk events throughout the country. The Arthritis Walk (a 5-kilometer course or a 1-mile course -- you choose!) promotes awareness of arthritis and serves as a fundraiser for the Arthritis Foundation.

Most of the Arthritis Walk events are held in April and May. Some locations hold the event during other months. While the Arthritis Foundation encourages you to form a team, you are welcome to participate as an individual -- or to volunteer at the event. Need event information for your location? We've got it for you in The 2012 Arthritis Walk.
