Parkinson’s Disease Resources for Eastern Kentucky / Appalachia

Connecting individuals touched by Parkinson's Disease with tools and resources while providing a support network for families and advocates.

Thank Our Legislators

For Supporting the National Plan to End Parkinson's Act

On May 23, 2024, the U.S. Senate unanimously voted in favor of the National Plan to End Parkinson’s Act. This followed the favorable December vote by the U.S. House, sending the bill to President Biden for his approval. My reaction? Shock! After more than 200 years of studying this snowflake condition – the fastest-growing neurological condition on the planet – we are witness to the most historic action ever to occur in the Parkinson’s community. We can now move forward toward funding cohesive research which, coupled with Al (artificial intelligence), has the potential to bring an end to and provide effective treatment for, people with Parkinson’s disease.
