APDA Parkinson’s Roadmap for Education and Support Services (PRESS) ™
American Parkinson’s Disease Association (APDA) Minnesota is proud to offer a special 8-week program for people who have been living with PD for the past 1-5 years.
This unique program, PRESS, melds education about different aspects of living well with PD with psychosocial support and sharing.
Care partners and adult family members of the person with PD are also encouraged to attend the PRESS sessions. Attendance at all sessions is recommended to reap the maximum benefits of the program.
There is no cost to attend the PRESS program, but pre-registration is required.
The group is open to any adult who has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease within the last five years, their care partner, and adult family members. Lynda Erickson, BSW, will facilitate the group. All registered participants are expected to attend all eight sessions of the program.
Check back for future sessions!
