Care Partner Summit - Caring with Confidence: Identity, Boundaries, and Support
Navigating the journey of Parkinson’s care involves continual change—not just for the person with Parkinson’s, but also for you, the care partner. This empowering two-hour webinar is designed to help you support your loved one while also caring for yourself with confidence, clarity, and compassion.
Join us for "Caring with Confidence," a virtual gathering focused on the evolving roles, boundaries, and identities that shape the care partner experience. Whether you're new to caregiving or have supported someone through many seasons of Parkinson’s, this webinar offers connection, insights, and practical reflections.
