The Arthritis Foundation is seeking applications from institutions developing training programs in clinical rheumatology to meet the challenges of the rheumatology work force shortage. This RFP targets US post-residency rheumatology clinical fellowship training programs in:  Med-Peds  Adult  Pediatrics

The goals of the AF Rheumatology Clinical Fellowship Program were determined based on feedback received from stakeholder groups, including patients and health care providers. This rheumatology workforce expansion initiative seeks to: 1. Reduce workforce barriers to care that threaten critical access to state-of-the-art rheumatology care for all people with arthritis. 2. Support early-in-career physicians who are committed to improving the lives of people with arthritis outside of the clinic, by engagement with the arthritis community, particularly where those communities have been underserved.
