Care Partners – The People with Angel Wings

In the journey with Parkinson’s care partners are, in many ways, the most critical players. Giving endlessly to those they love, care partners are often overlooked when it comes to support.

In this education and resource program, specifically for care partners, we offer information on Parkinson’s disease but, more importantly, guidance for care partners on taking care of themselves.

We encourage you to use this content to help you stay educated, stay strong, stay healthy, and always to strive to find the positive in everything.

THE WALK WAS A HUGE SUCCESS
THANK YOU!
