Foundation for Education and Musculoskeletal Research (FEMR)

Mission:
FEMR’s mission is to become a resource for unbiased information to promote musculoskeletal health and research, prevent fragility fractures and increase awareness of osteoporosis and related bone trauma and disabilities.

Vision:
FEMR’s goal is to raise awareness and empower individuals to combat the burden of fragility fractures through early diagnosis, education on treatment options and promoting lifestyle modifications.

Through the development of education programs, partnerships and ongoing research, FEMR will carry out their mission. The promotion of musculoskeletal health and the support of ongoing research to reduce the incidence of fragility fractures are paramount to FEMR. The prevention, care and treatment of other related bone trauma and disabilities will be addressed by FEMR through a number of outlets including certification training, newsletters and community events
