A Message From Our President
I would like to extend a warm welcome to our newly designed web page. Our goal in creating this page was to make it user-friendly and beneficial for patients, patient advocates, members, medical colleagues, corporate sponsors, partner organizations, payers, and the general public. In addition to providing information about our organization and members, we aim to serve as a valuable resource for disease states, clinical trials, therapeutics, legislative issues, and other news that directly impacts our patients and our specialty. We encourage you to visit frequently and share your feedback.
A sincere thank you to everyone involved in the creation of this website and to all who visit.

Our mission extends to assisting members in providing leadership on rheumatologic and musculoskeletal health issues through advocacy and awareness, communications, education, and sharing of research with respect to rheumatologic and musculoskeletal diseases with the Michigan medical and health care community and to providing a forum for members to create and advance a rheumatologic and musculoskeletal health agenda in private, public, and political forums.
