"Ease the Burden. Find a Cure."

We are the voice of Albertans and their families living with Parkinson disease (PD). Our mission is to Ease the Burden and Find a Cure through research, education, advocacy and support services. We are the only charitable organization in Alberta providing support and services for the over 8,000 people and their families living with PD in our province.

September 7 & 8, 2013

Parkinson Alberta seeks five volunteers to share their stories, and image, as a "Face of Parkinson." Volunteers will be featured in promotional and communication materials, represent Parkinson Alberta to the public, and help build awareness and support for Parkinson disease. You will help to foster greater understanding of PD, while dispelling myths and misinformation.
