#  8 Useful Parkinson’s Foundation COVID-19 Resources 

 Aug 13, 2020 

 

    ![Woman on the phone](/sites/default/files/styles/no_sizing/public/images/covidresources-blog.jpg?itok=t10NwVL5)  With so many people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) staying safe indoors, the Parkinson’s Foundation has launched resources articles and virtual programs designed to support the PD community during the [COVID-19](/living-with-parkinsons/management/covid "COVID-19") pandemic.

[Our new virtual programs and content](/resources-support/online-education/pdhealth "PD Health @ Home") focuses on priority topics like exercising at home, COVID-19 preparedness, stress management, telemedicine and more. Remember, our Helpline 1-800-4PD-INFO (473-4636) is always here to help, especially now.

“As someone living with Parkinson’s disease, I know the importance of communications and providing online resources while the more at-risk PD community is socially distancing at home,” said Denise Coley, a member of the Parkinson’s Foundation People with Parkinson’s Council.
