Welcome to Young Parkinsons of Indiana! We are Hoosiers reaching out to other active or young-onset people with Parkinson's disease (pwp) to help address the unique issues of young-onset pwp, their families, friends, and care partners. Young-onset people with Parkinson's may be dealing with young families, striving to remain in the work force, or establishing a long-term medical treatment plan. You are not alone. We are here to help! Watch here for information on regular meetings and see the 'Events/Dates' selection on the left side of this page for upcoming meetings and other activities. Our regular meeting time is the fourth Thursday of each month from 6:30-8:00 PM. The location and directions are indicated below. Get up! Get involved!
