About Us

Welcome to My Info Library!

My Info Library was developed to address recommendations that arose from a community-based participatory research study led by Dr. Diane Lacaille and Dr. Sue Mills. The project invited 63 people living with arthritis and other chronic conditions to identify challenges they experienced in taking care of their chronic health conditions and to generate potential solutions together. The study was funded by the Canadian Initiative for Outcomes in Rheumatology cAre (CIORA).

This resource was developed as a partnership between Arthritis Research Canada, MOSAIC, Portland Hotel Community Services Society, researchers from several universities in British Columbia, medical students, and an arthritis consumer-patient leader.
