Brief Summary
JIA patients, their parents, and the health care professionals experience the complexity of the initial care pathway. The aim of the study is to explore the referral pathway to access pediatric rheumatology centers for JIA patients. The exploration will aim to identify the barriers and facilitators of referral, based on the conceptual framework of the health literacy. The investigators will conduct a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews. The perspectives of parents/children/health care professionals will be crossed to enrich the data.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Experience and views of barriers and solutions to the referral to pediatric rheumatology center for JIA patients
Through semi-structured interviews, the study will reconstruct the referral pathway to the pediatric rheumatology center for JIA patients. * For patients and their parents, the interviews will focus on their experiences of the health care system, their feelings about interactions with health professional, their expectations and the elements that led to the parents' decision regarding their child's health. * For health care professionals, the interviews will focus on their experience in managing children with JIA (from the symptom onset to the first visit with the pediatric rheumatologist), the difficulties they encountered, and the improvements to be made in training and communication.

Study Arms (3)
JIA patients
Children diagnosed with JIA between 4 and 24 months before the start of the study, treated and followed in a pediatric rheumatology center (old enough to answer the questions)
Parents of JIA patients
Parents of a child diagnosed with JIA between 4 and 24 months prior to the start of the study (treated and followed in a pediatric rheumatology center)
Health care professionals
Physician with experience in the initial management of JIA patients (between symptom onset and first visit with a pediatric rheumatologist)
Interventions
Subjects will be recruited in a purposive, non-randomized manner. Data will be collected to obtain a sufficient diversity of perspectives on the topic, while maintaining sufficient homogeneity for analysis. The number of participants cannot be determined in advance; it will be determined after data saturation.
