If you have Parkinson's disease, please know that you are not alone. We invite you to connect with us for helpful information, understanding, and encouragement.
We are dedicated to bringing together local persons with Parkinson’s, family and friends who support them, and those who provide services to help them. Our programs are provided at no cost. Every dollar raised remains with the local PD community.

Join us as we listen to Marlee Sorrells, a physical therapy student who has worked to transform voice therapy for persons with Parkinson's disease in rural West Texas. Read an article about her research here: https://www.hsutx.edu/about-hsu/news/finding-her-voice-and-helping-others-keep-theirs/
Our activities are organized by volunteers who are excited to meet you. Local participants range from being recently diagnosed to having lived with Parkinson's for 20+ years. Not everyone in the group has Parkinson's, some are friends and family who are care partners. There are no required fees.
