The Parkinson’s Circle – Empowering Women with PD
Are you a woman diagnosed with Parkinson’s in need of a tribe, circle of friends or a sounding board? Maybe you just need a shoulder to cry on? But just for a second because we have lots to do.
Are you looking for a group of supporters that can share ideas and new technologies that make life easier?
This group is open to all women diagnosed with PD who want to keep moving, keep learning and keep going until there’s a cure.
Join us the first Tuesday of each month at 6pm for our Women’s Group.

Join us monthly on the last Monday at 10:30 am. If you’re unable to attend the LIVE event, it will be recorded and made available on our YouTube Channel for you to watch at your convenience.
We look forward to your participation and hope our series can offer the support and insight you need on this journey.
