The Benicia Parkinson’s Support Group was founded to assist individuals in our community and their families who are impacted by Parkinson’s disease and Parkinsonism - a group of complex neurodegenerative disorders.



We welcome everyone affected by these diseases: individuals living with the condition, their care partners, family members, and friends. There are no membership fees or annual dues - just a shared commitment to supporting one another.



Our group is rooted in inclusivity, empathy, and shared understanding. At our meetings, we exchange stories - of challenges and triumphs, frustrations and funny moments. We learn from each other, support one another, and walk this journey together. Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry - but always, we listen.



We draw on a variety of information sources, including guest speakers, educational programs, and the lived experiences of our members. We recognize that Parkinson’s and Parkinsonism affects each person differently, with unique symptoms and progression rates.



Beyond our meetings, we are committed to raising awareness in the broader community—helping others better understand Parkinson’s and Parkinsonism and how to support those living with it. The Support Group meets monthly on the second Saturday from 10 A.M. to noon at the Benicia Lutheran Church at 201 Raymond Drive. The Care Partners Group meets monthly on the third Saturday from 2 P.M. to 4 P.M. also in the Church.

Benicia Parkinson’s Support Group is an independent non-profit.
