Become a Founding Partner: Lead the Transformation in Bone Health
Launch the National Standard in Bone Health
ASOP's Inaugural $4.5 Million Founding Partners Campaign
Visionary investments of $100K+ will create the first clinician-led national certifications, achieve global accreditation, and prevent millions of fractures—setting a new standard for osteoporosis care.
The Silent Crisis – And the Opportunity
Look closely at this photo. These are everyday people — young and old, every race, every background.
Fracture risk hides in plain sight among them all.
Osteoporosis is a lifelong process. We reach our maximum bone mass (peak bone density) by our mid- to late 20s, then gradually lose bone for the rest of our lives. That loss accelerates dramatically for women after menopause and for men as testosterone declines.
By identifying and addressing fracture risk earlier in life—often decades before the potential first fracture—we can dramatically help our aging population stay active, independent, and fracture-free longer. This proactive approach supports coordinated, person-centered care that keeps older adults healthier for longer.
Imagine a cardiologist telling a patient, "There's nothing we can do until your first heart attack—but when it happens, we have great treatments to try to prevent the next one." That would be unthinkable. Yet for decades, that's essentially been the standard in osteoporosis management: wait for the first fracture, then react.
It's time to break that cycle.
Every year in the U.S., more than 2 million fragility fractures occur because bone weakness goes undetected—costing $55 billion and causing immense suffering.
