The Benicia Parkinson’s Support Group is for those in our area who are impacted by this complex neurodegenerative disorder.  It is open to all those in various stages of Parkinson’s, their care partners, friends and family. No membership fee is charged, and no annual dues are required.

At our meetings we share stories of our challenges and funny moments. We learn from and support each other navigate life with this neurodegenerative disease. We laugh and sometimes cry together. We learn more about Parkinson’s disease from guest speakers, educational programs and one another. Here we can see that people have unique experiences with differing symptoms and rates of change. We also raise awareness about Parkinson’s disease in the surrounding community, helping them to understand and support people with Parkinson’s disease.

The Support Group meets monthly on the second Saturday from 10 AM to noon at the Benicia Lutheran Church at 201 Raymond Drive. The Care Partners Group meets monthly on the third Saturday from 2 PM to 4 PM also in the Church.

The Benicia Parkinson’s Support Group is a member of the Parkinson Association of Northern California (PANC).
