Parkinson's Foundation New England


  • Mission

    The Parkinson’s Foundation makes life better for people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) by improving care and advancing research toward a cure. In everything we do, we build on the energy, experience and passion of our global Parkinson’s community.

    About Us

    The challenges of living with Parkinson’s disease, improving care and finding a cure can seem overwhelming. No individual or group can do it alone.

    We are the Parkinson’s Foundation. A community. An alliance. A movement. Where people living with Parkinson’s, families, caregivers, scientists, advocates, donors and volunteers join forces to improve lives and advance toward a cure.

    For over half a century, we’ve made tangible progress on all fronts, from the largest clinical study of Parkinson’s, which has significantly improved care, to breakthrough treatments. Today, we continue to:

    • Provide life-changing support to people living with Parkinson’s and their caregivers
    • Fund game-changing research on treatment and care
    • Convene the best minds from every corner of the global Parkinson’s community to find new approaches that enhance care and move us closer to a cure.
