The Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders Program at Shirley Ryan AbilityLab and the Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders Center at Northwestern Memorial Hospital are partnering to offer two in-person support groups – one for people with Parkinson’s disease and one for care partners–held at the same time and location.
We encourage you to come together with your loved one to receive support, build connections and engage in great discussions and activities.
