2020 Care Partner Summit

The 2020 Care Partner Summit | Cumbre Para Cuidadores is taking place this Saturday! 

The summit will take place virtually on Saturday, May 16th from 12:00 pm- 3:30 pm ET. This year’s Summit will focus on the unique journey of a care partner, with our theme: Planning for the Unpredictable Path of Parkinson’s Caregiving.

A timely topic during the COVID-19 pandemic, our speakers and care partners are ready to share their insight and encouragement to those caring for someone living with Parkinson’s disease (PD). We recognize the hard work that goes into caregiving and we want to create this space for them to share their life lessons, learn from each other and grow in their self-care skills.  

The summit will be online only, and individuals may register for English or Spanish https://www.cvent.com/d/7yqm3q. The Care Partner Summit will be focused on the following topics:

• Cognitive Changes
• Mental Health
• Self-Care
• Practical Planning

The Parkinson's Foundation Moving Day® event, a walk for Parkinson’s, is a fun and inspiring fundraising event that unites families, friends and communities in the fight against PD. Participants include Parkinson’s patients, caregivers, families, friends, healthcare professionals, corporate leaders and teams who will join together to raise funds to support patient care and research initiatives to beat Parkinson’s.  Moving Day® highlights “movement” and exercise as a symbol of hope and progress because of its essential role in treating Parkinson’s disease.
