APRIL IS PARKINSON'S AWARENESS MONTH

Parkinson's Awareness Month, observed annually in April, is dedicated to raising awareness about Parkinson's disease, a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement. Throughout the month, various organizations, healthcare professionals, advocates, and individuals affected by Parkinson's come together to educate the public about the disease, its symptoms, treatments, and research advancements. The goal is to foster understanding, and to support those living with Parkinson's Disease.
