April 29, 2023: Team up with us to fight against Parkinson’s Disease!
Florida leads the nation in the percentage of population with Parkinson’s and is second only to California with the highest number of people with Parkinson’s. Here in Brevard County, Parkinson’s affects more than 5,000 residents.
The Brevard Parkinson’s Alliance is dedicated to providing information, resources, and programs for those with Parkinson’s and those who support and care. We serve all of Brevard County, from Mims to Micco. We are a 501(c) tax exempt organization that is self-funded and not affiliated with any foundation or religious organizations.
In addition to this web site, the Brevard Parkinson’s Alliance maintains an extensive library of Parkinson’s-related material at One Senior Place (8085 Spyglass Hill Rd, Melbourne, FL 32940).
