Find Parkinson’s Help Near You
The National Parkinson Foundation website contains a good number of resources that includes publications, links to related sites and NPF Programs. It’s a great resource, but as we’ve said before, we like our resources local because they’re much more likely to meet our specific needs, and the National Parkinson Foundation doesn’t disappoint. The NPF maintains two pages for finding help in your community.
The ‘Find a Support Group‘ function on the site actually gives a choice of finding an affiliated chapter, a NPF center, or a support group. You can search by country, state, or within a specified number of miles of a U.S. zip code. Try the zip search first.
NPF also offers a search for a physician, using their ‘Decide-PD‘ search. This appears to be a fairly new feature and maybe not as well thought out as the support group search. The most effective approach seems to be to select your state and then find the physician within the resulting list.
Also, while your at it, check our state and local resources page for other regional support.
