Here at Northwest Parkinson's Foundation, our goal is to partner with all people impacted by Parkinson's.
NW Parkinson’s is your local, independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving people impacted by Parkinson’s in the Northwest since 1998.

All of our Masters of Social Work Services, as well as our education and exercise programming are 100% FREE.
