Getting Connected
We Welcome You to the Parkinson's Support Groups
After 27 years of living with Parkinson's, we know how important it is to be part of such a group, to learn more about the disease itself, to hear speakers each month and to socially interact. And caregivers need the support
of others they can call on for advice. Support groups do just that, they are here to help educate you, offer resources and special social opportunities to make the journey easier. You have others to socialize with and connect with.
And we're affiliated with the national Parkinson's organizations. We can help you find resources online
through them or from our own own literature table at our meetings. We're a diverse group with
one thing in common - Parkinson's.
