APDA Parkinson Roadmap for Education and Support Services™ (PRESS)

About This Event

The APDA Parkinson Roadmap for Education and Support Services™ (PRESS) is an 8-week program that provides an opportunity for people with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and one partner or other family member to meet with other PWP facing a similar experience and share coping strategies regarding day-to-day issues related to living with Parkinson’s. For many people with PD, the program serves as a gateway to the world of education, support services, and advocacy available in their community. PRESS is a place to share feelings in a safe and caring environment, and gather to share information and resources. A licensed social worker facilitates this program and includes guest speakers. 

The group warmly welcomes any adult who has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease within the last 5 years. There is no cost for this program, as we believe in making our community support accessible to all. If you are interested in joining one of our PRESS programs, please complete this form, and we will be in touch with you. We plan to add PRESS programs as needed. Although the current program may be full, completing this form will ensure we keep you informed of any future programs. 

Virtual ZOOM groups require the following: 

- Access to a smartphone, tablet, or laptop

- Ability to navigate participation in a ZOOM meeting

- Open to pre-program screening questionnaire with a facilitator to determine eligibility.
