Description

Youth and young people with rheumatic health conditions such as juvenile arthritis or lupus face unique challenges as they begin their working lives. Working with a rheumatic disease: an interactive tool for youth and young adults is designed to help young people navigate these challenges by identifying potential challenges and offering information and recommendations from trusted resources to overcome them. This interactive tool is designed for youth (teenagers) and young adults who are just entering, recently entered or contemplating entering the workforce. The tool takes users through one of three paths, depending on how they identify:

  • I am looking for work
  • I have a job
  • I'm not able to work
