Resources for Veterans with Parkinson's Disease
More than 110,000 veterans with Parkinson’s disease receive care through the U.S. Department of Affairs (VA). Many U.S. military veterans with Parkinson’s have access to specialized medical care and financial assistance through the VA. During this webinar, we will dive into an exploration of the extensive resources and dedicated support services that Veterans have access to through the VA and the Parkinson’s Foundation.
