Welcome to the Utah Chapter of the
American Parkinson Disease Association
The Utah Chapter of the American Parkinson Disease Association and the Parkinson's Disease Information and Referral Center at The University of Utah work closely together. Our common goals are:
to support research to find a cure for Parkinson's disease
to ease the burden of living with Parkinson's disease, and
to provide those with Parkinson's disease the tools to maximize their quality of life.
Living well with Parkinson's disease requires more than the right prescription medication or surgery. Our primary purpose is to empower those with Parkinson's with the information and resources they need to take advantage of available health options.
