parkinson's awareness month

yopn is celebrating parkinson's awarness month!

April is Parkinson's Awareness Month, and we want to shine a light on the power of shared experiences within our YOPN community. This month, we’re asking: "What would you share about your experience with YOPN with others living with YOPD?"

Your journey, your insights, and your stories have the potential to help someone else feel more supported, informed, and connected. Whether it’s advice, resources, or moments of encouragement, we want to hear it all.

  • What aspects of YOPN have made the biggest impact on your journey?
  • Is there a resource, group or connection through YOPN that's been invaluable to you?
  • Have you made a connection or new friend through YOPN?
  • Have you gained knowledge or support you wish you had earlier in your diagnosis?
  • Is there a piece off advice or a perspective you'd share with someone newly diagnosed?
Your responses will help us highlight the strength of this community and provide guidance and hope to others navigating their own YOPN journey. We'll feature your anonymous insights in blog articles, social media posts, and our monthly member update throughout Parkinson's Awareness Month.

Let's use this month to lift each other up and spread awareness - your voice matters.
