Media kit

Arthritis is one of the most common, disabling and costly chronic diseases in Canada, affecting one in six Canadians. We can't accept "no cure" for an answer.

Arthritis is cured! (if you want it) is about having Canadians recognize the impact of arthritis, and taking steps to change how arthritis is perceived. It's time we expand the channels for conversations about arthritis.

The program offers two free arthritis apps for iPhone and iPod touch – ArthritisID (for the public) and ArthritisID PRO (for healthcare professionals). You can learn more about these apps in our Resources section, or visit the iTunes Store to download ArthritisID and ArthritisID PRO.

Individual PDF's of media kit materials are available via the following links:

• Screen shots from ArthritisID and ArthritisID PRO
• Feature lists for ArthritisID and ArthritisID PRO
• High resolution images of the point-of-practice arthritis tool
• Arthritis is cured! (if you want it) National Arthritis Awareness program backgrounder
• Arthritis research funding – a comparative chart
