You Can Help Us Bridge a Vital Knowledge Gap

Millions suffer from musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions like neck pain, low back pain, and osteoarthritis, which are often inadequately addressed in primary care due to limited training among clinicians. With fewer orthopedic physicians, minimal orthopedic content in medical and nursing schools, and an aging population, the need for effective primary care solutions continues to grow.

Specialized orthopedic training can change this. Clinicians equipped to manage these conditions can help patients improve function, reduce pain, prevent re-injury, and manage chronic issues—while saving healthcare costs by minimizing unnecessary referrals.
For 25 years, Jackson Orthopedic Foundation (JOF) has dedicated itself to closing this critical gap in patient care.

As a Canes Gala sponsor, you will support JOF’s nationally accredited, flagship education program: Orthopedic Primary Care (OPC)—offered as a growing suite of online, live (in-person), and hybrid courses. These provide flexible, affordable, and convenient ways for clinicians to get the training they need.

Your sponsorship also supports the next generation through our Healthcare Immersion Program (HIP), which provides college students a hands-on, month-long summer experience shadowing healthcare professionals.
By sponsoring the Canes Gala, you help Jackson Orthopedic Foundation empower clinicians with essential nonsurgical skills, bridging critical knowledge gaps in musculoskeletal care. Every clinician trained is a pebble in a pond, creating ripples that positively impact countless patients.

Join us in transforming healthcare and improving patient outcomes—together, we can make a lasting difference!
