iPain's Arizona Chronic & Rare County Events 2023

Our project was to host 15 countywide events/year for two years to provide health education to underserved communities in Arizona. We offered free resources based on each community, legislative updates on health bills and laws in Arizona, and health education. Our project was a success, and we reached our goal of delivering health education to more than 1,000 people.

We completed 15 Arizona County events in 2023. We also hosted pop-up events that were not scheduled but became an opportunity as we finished our three-part tour (south, north, and central) through Arizona. The events provide Arizonans interested in pain and rare diseases with community resources, laws, and support available to Arizona residents!

The 15 planned events worked well, with 960 in-person participants (planned and pop-ups) and 257 virtual attendees over a 3 month period in 2023

These events are hosted and created by the International Pain Foundation. Our event support organizations/companies include HealtheVoices Impact Fund by Johnson & Johnson, KB Companies LLC, Recovia Arizona, Respond and Rescue LLC, AZ DHS, and Pain Matters Support Groups, with events supported and hosted by the International Pain Foundation.
