Live Well with Parkinson’s Through Wellness & Social Connection
At the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA), wellness is about more than just managing symptoms. It’s also about finding joy, building connections, and feeling supported along the way. That’s why our Parkinson’s wellness and social programs are designed to support the whole person.
Through these programs, you’ll find chances to connect with others, enjoy creative and recreational activities, and care for your emotional and mental well-being. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or have been living with Parkinson’s for years, there’s a place for you here.
For example, from beach-themed socials to art, music, and more, APDA’s wellness offerings bring people together in meaningful ways. So, explore our upcoming events below—and take the next step toward living well with Parkinson’s in a community that truly understands.
