We are bringing care partners together in-person and online to provide tools and resources to help make life better for themselves and their loved one with Parkinson’s disease. The Summit will focus on how to manage evolving roles and identity as well as thinking changes in Parkinson’s.

You have the option of attending our in-person program or you can watch the webinar from home via Zoom. Please tell us which option you prefer during the registration process.
