The American College of Rheumatology's mission is to empower rheumatology professionals to excel in their speciality. Our membership includes physicians, health professionals, and scientists who embody our mission through their commitment to education, research, advocacy, and practice support.  Our organization is dedicated to protecting patient access to quality care and to providing credible, evidence-based information and resources on the subject of rheumatic disease.

We provide professional education for our members through several venues. The Annual Scientific Meeting is the premier scientific meeting devoted to the study, treatment and impact of rheumatic disease in the United States and abroad. This meeting draws thousands of rheumatologists and specialized health professionals from around the world.  A number of other topical conferences, meetings, and online courses round out the ACR's educational offerings.

The ACR publishes Arthritis & Rheumatology, the premier scientific journal for research in the rheumatic diseases. Arthritis Care & Research is published by the Association of Rheumatology Health Professionals, a division of the ACR. This journal focuses on the health services and clinical aspects of rheumatology.
