My Favorite Resources
by Lauren Simmons
 
This month's favorite resource is the Parkinson's Wellness Fund (PWF). There are an abundant amount of treatments and therapies that significantly help people live well with Parkinson's, but most are not covered by insurance.  That was the impetus for the Parkinson's Wellness Fund over ten years ago.  
               
“The limitations of health insurance, the cost of health insurance and medication expenses is a significant barrier that too often limits a family's ability to introduce and provide their loved ones with what they really need.”
 
The Parkinson's Wellness fund currently provides grants throughout the United States for out of pocket Parkinson's related expenses. They are dedicated to helping people with Parkinson's live well for today and for tomorrow. Like many other organizations, Covid affected the PWF also. While expenses continued for those living with PD, fundraising events were limited. After a two year hiatus, their 11th Annual Play for Parkinson's Golf Tournament is back!  You can find details below for the tournament happening on June 28th.
