Strategic Alliance

The Strategic Alliance Committee will identify societies, foundations, groups and industry partners that have an interest in OA and related research and establish mutually beneficial interactions.  The goal is to raise awareness and educate groups about osteoarthritis.  Interactions may include formal partnerships, joint meetings and workshops. This Committee is also responsible for reviewing endorsement and initiative requests that come to OARSI and has oversight of the National Ambassadors Program.
