– 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. ET  
– 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. ET

### **What is the PD Solo Network:** 

A virtual network for people living with Parkinson's disease (PD) who live alone, by choice or circumstance. The purpose of this group is to create a community of support for those living without a care partner. People living with PD are the experts about what challenges, changes and accommodations are needed on a daily basis. This network will provide a place to share ideas, concerns, brainstorm strategies, suggestions, resources & to build relationships.

The Parkinson's Foundation is providing the initial funding and support to kick start this network. It will most likely become a very strong network that will operate independently although the Parkinson's Foundation will always be an entity of support & information for the participants.

### **Upcoming Meeting Dates:**

– June 11 and June 25, 2024  
– July 9 and July 23, 2024  
– August 13 and August 27, 2024  
​​​​​​​– September 10 and September 24, 2024

There is no charge to attend, but registration is required in order to receive the Zoom link.
