The Vision

​In 2015 the vision of Friends of Parkinson’s was conceptualized, and we received official 501c3 non-profit designation in 2016. Since that time, we have become a valued resource hub providing programs and services in the Southern Nevada region. We also expanded to Utah, California and soon activity in Georgia. These activities support our vision to create local, nationwide, and international initiatives that promotes research, innovation, and technology related to Parkinsons‘ Disease and to better serve those impacted by the disease.
