Support Group Speakers

Nebraska Support Group Speakers

March 2020

COVID- 19 Update: All support groups and presentations have been cancelled for the month of March in response to the CDC recommendations to contain the spread of COVID-19 and keep our community safe.

This time of social distancing does not have to mean social isolation. We have compiled a list of online programs, presentations, and live webinars from our national and local partners for easy access in one, easy to find place. These programs can help keep you moving, connected, and educated from right inside your home. Check out the growing list here!

The Parkinson’s Foundation also offers online support through online discussion groups on PD Connections. When you join a discussion group, you’ll connect with other people who share your same interests, challenges, and hopes with a variety of topics. This offers an alternative to in-person support groups!
