Support Groups - Four State Area
Parkinson's is different for each person. It varies from day to day and the meds work, except when they don't work. Who understands this? We do.
Support groups are regular people with Parkinson's disease and their family members. Support groups hold discussions, have speakers on topics about Parkinson's (and about life), have activities, and many have food.
Because we HAVE Parkinson's and LIVE with it each and every day, we know what resources are available in our communities and know how WE cope with the disease.
Whether you have Parkinson's or are a Care Partner or a family member or friend; consider a support group.
Many of the groups listed below are members of the Four-State Alliance for Parkinson's Support.
The majority of these groups are not currently meeting due to COVID-19. Contact each group for more information.
