TMA’s Empowerment Clinic Series
The Empowerment Clinic is a signature education and wellness series from The Myositis Association, designed to improve the quality of life for people living with myositis and those who care for them. Each session offers practical tools, expert insights, and supportive resources to help participants navigate daily life with greater confidence, connection, and well-being. Whether addressing physical, emotional, or social aspects of living with myositis, the Empowerment Clinic equips our community with the knowledge and support they need to thrive.
