Join Us for Talk Over RA 2024!
2 Days.
6 Advocates.
22 events.
This will be my fifth year of taking part in the Talk Over RA Open Mic events and I’m very excited! This year, over the course of September 24 and 25, six RA advocates are creating unique and interesting content about RA and how we cope with its, doing our very best to create joyful and meaningful lives.
Talk Over RA is a Canadian event and I love that specific flair, although of course, much of the information and thoughts about RA and living with this chronic condition is universal, no matter where you live. We look forward to hosting a global audience for this.
This year, we are using a sort of conference approach, creating a schedule of all the events and publishing this in advance. This will allow you to plan your Talk Over RA days, knowing exactly when and where to watch, read, and chat. For those of you who can’t attend live, the schedule is also a handy tool for watching, reading, and joining the chats at a later time.
Much thanks to Abbvie for supporting us in this event. Abbvie does not have an editorial role; all views and content are our own. A quick note: this event is for information purposes only and does not substitute for medical advice by your own doctor about how RA specifically affects you.
Below, I’ve shared links to the participants’ websites and social media platforms and then the Talk Over RA schedule. After the event is over, I’ll pop in direct links to each video and post so it’s easier for you to find them. Please give me a few days to do this, it’s going to be a busy week!
