parkinson's awareness 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.
Let's use this month to lift each other up and spread awareness - your voice matters.
The Parkinson's community is going to #SparkTheNight on April 11, 2025!
"Spark the Night" represents the PD Avengers mission to illuminate cities worldwide in unity and support for the 11.8 million people living with Parkinson's. On April 11, 2025, each blue light will shine as a symbol of a story, a voice, and an unwavering commitment to a better future for those affected by the disease.
PD Avengers is a patient-led organization, united in the purpose of ending Parkinson's disease. They raise awareness, engagement and hope.
Is your City Participating in Spark the Night?
