Programs & Services / Self-help Support Groups / New Diagnosis Support Group Meetings
Are you looking for a support group to help you cope with your diagnosis of Parkinson's disease?
 
Or, as someone supporting a person who is newly diagnosed, are you interested in speaking to others who face similar challenges?
 
We would like to invite you to join a support group for people who have been diagnosed with Parkinson's in the past two years. The New Diagnosis Support Group Meeting in Vancouver is open to people with Parkinson's, their carepartners, families, and friends.
 
The benefits of joining a group are many. Newly diagnosed individuals often mention feeling isolated and as a newly diagnosed person or family member, you may wish to talk with others who are also facing this challenge.
 
The purpose of our self-help support group is to provide an atmosphere of mutual trust and support and for sharing strategies for living a full life with Parkinson's.
 
Dates: 1st Tuesday of every month
Time: 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm
