Mentorship....a bridge to empowerment
Parkinson Mentors Arizona is a 501(c)3 non-profit committed to supporting and empowering individuals with Parkinson's Disease.
At Parkinson Mentors Arizona, our mission is to provide peer support to people newly diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, and individuals with established Parkinson's, so each person feels supported and empowered.
We understand that every individual's journey with Parkinson's disease is unique. Our peer mentors travel the road of PD with strength, advocacy, positivity, and persistence. We offer local community resources and guidance to help you achieve understanding and feel supported.
Thank you, Jen for talking to all the attendees about PMAZ at the Movement Disorders Foundation of Arizona event on June 7th.
PMAZ mentors Jen and Lisa took a picture with Therese for The Red Thread Project for the World Parkinson's Congress.
