Are you in the U.S.? If so, you might want to check with the Arthritis Foundation (AF) and see if it has a local chapter / support group for juvenile onset arthritis.

Also, some hospitals offer arthritis support groups and other programs, such as ones for daily living, exercise, water aerobics, etc.

If you're seeing a rheumatologist, he or she might also have some suggestions and also offer the AF magazine free to patients. It often presents helpful ideas.

Another idea is to check out arthritisinsight.com - for ideas that might be useful.
