  • Mission

    Parkinson’s Pointe uses a behavior change model to drive high quality programs, support and education allowing the community affected by Parkinson’s Disease to improve the quality of their life. We do this locally by providing high quality programs consistent with the latest research and a supportive environment for people with Parkinson’s Disease to elevate their level of resilience. Nationally, we provide evidence based, professional continuing education to fitness and rehabilitation professionals so that they can better serve their communities. Parkinson’s Pointe aims to be a model for community based programming that could be replicated nationwide and could be expanded to serve other populations.
