Managing the impact of Parkinson's disease may become more challenging over time. Advancing non-motor symptoms, particularly changes in cognition, can be daunting for persons with Parkinson's and their loved ones. This program focuses on cognition changes in Parkinson's and explores new treatments and strategies to address such changes. Attendees may participate in person, or virtually via Zoom.
There is no charge to attend, but registration is required. This program is open to people with Parkinson's, their family, friends and the community.
