Building Better Bones Together™: Community Connect

Connect. Learn. Build stronger bones together.

Join the Bone Health and Osteoporosis Foundation (BHOF) for Community Connect, an in-person gathering designed for people living with osteoporosis or low bone density, individuals who have experienced a fracture, caregivers, family members, and anyone interested in learning more about protecting their bone health.

Community Connect brings together patients, caregivers, BHOF Peer Educators and Support Group leaders, and bone health experts for a half-day of education, conversation, and community. These smaller, local gatherings are designed to give participants an opportunity to learn from trusted experts, ask questions, hear from others with similar experiences, and connect with bone health resources in their community.

What to Expect
During Community Connect, participants will have opportunities to:

• Learn more about osteoporosis, fracture risk, bone density screening, treatment, and steps that can help protect bone health.
• Hear from bone health professionals and members of the patient community.
• Learn questions you may want to discuss with your own healthcare professional.
• Connect with other patients, caregivers, and people interested in improving bone health.
• Discover BHOF educational resources and other opportunities to stay connected.
