The Founders Group
A working conversation, led by the people who see the most and are heard the least.
The people closest to bone health care see things no one else does. They know where the real obstacles are, because they hit them every day. They have ideas about what would actually move the field forward, because they live in the gap between what should happen and what does.
And almost none of that insight has ever had a place to go. The direction of the field gets shaped in rooms the front line is rarely in.
The Founders Forum is being built to change that.
What it is
The Founders Forum is a working conversation, led by the providers and open to the bone health ecosystem around them, the clinicians, program builders, educators, and others who engage with the real work of caring for these patients.
It exists for one reason: so the people who see the most, and are heard the least, can help set the direction of the field.
This is ASOP’s mission in action. We are here for the providers, to help them succeed at treating patients. The Forum is where that commitment becomes real people, real direction, led by the ones who matter most and are too often overlooked.
It is not a coalition to join or an audience to sit in. It is a room to contribute to.
The questions we are asking
The questions are simple, and they are yours to answer:
1. What do you see, in your own practice and across the wider bone health landscape, that others miss?
2. How does it affect the work you do?
3. What should bone health look like five years from now?
How it works
The Forum begins as small, curated groups. Intentionally intimate, because the conversation has to be real. Each group brings together a handful of people across specialties, roles, and settings, united by a shared orientation toward outcomes and progress rather than position or agenda.
A larger quarterly convening is coming this fall. Everyone who joins now becomes part of the community that shapes it.
If you want to be part of this, the first step is simple. Tell us what you see.
