PARKINSON’S SUPPORT GROUPS

Parkinson’s Support Groups

Introduction and Mission

Janet Standifer with Dementia in Perspective, LLC, formed the Parkinson’s Support Group in Weatherford and Fort Worth, Texas to increase awareness of Parkinson’s Disease through education, information, and support for the persons with Parkinson’s Disease and their families.

What is a Parkinson’s Support Group?

The Parkinson’s Support Group is a group designed for members and their needs.  People who attend have in common a strong desire to learn more about Parkinson’s Disease and how to cope with day-day situations.

    *  The group shares and exchanges common experiences, situations and problems that are related to P.D.

    *  The group offers an opportunity to socialize and provide emotional and practical support.

    *  The group provides ways to learn and share information about topics of interests, resources and experiences.

Who Would Benefit?

Anyone interested in learning more about Parkinson’s Disease would benefit from attending the group meetings. We welcome those that would like to learn more about Parkinson’s disease, whether you are a friend, family member and/or someone living with Parkinson’s Disease.

Topics

Topics discussed are those selected by members of the support group. Guest speakers and/or group members may present the topics during each meeting. Sponsors are valuable resources who have the opportunity to discuss their business the first 10 minutes of each meaning.
