Jennifer Asmonga moved to Pittsburgh with her family when she was in the 7th grade. In what was an awkward time for anyone, she faced adversities in school because of her physical challenges. Jennifer learned to overcome her limitations by spending time with other children with arthritis at the Arthritis Foundation’s camp for Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis (Camp JRA). The Arthritis Foundation funded Jennifer’s trips to camp from age 12-17, where she learned how to eat healthy, exercise, and make friends with kids just like her. Now she is on her feet eight hours a day as a fifth grade teacher. Listen to this episode to hear more about Jennifer's experience with arthritis.
