Ms. Conway also advocates for rheumatology patients through the non-profit organization she cofounded in 2013, the International Foundation for Autoimmune & Autoinflammatory Arthritis. The foundation is aimed at helping patients living with autoimmune arthritis use their voices to affect education, advocacy and research. She says, “Social media introduced me to patients who inspired me to use my voice to become an influencer and advocate for autoimmune arthritis.”
