Join us every Wednesday at 8:30 am at the Coffee X Change Bistro!
At Care Pong, we believe joining a Parkinson's social group is vital for fostering a supportive community and enhancing well-being. The group provides a safe space for sharing experiences, coping strategies, and emotional support, promoting belonging and understanding. Beyond addressing physical challenges, it offers a crucial outlet for unique emotional and mental health considerations. The camaraderie combats isolation, contributing significantly to mental resilience. Participation inspires active management of Parkinson's, fostering motivation and empowerment. Through shared activities and mutual encouragement, this group transcends the disease's challenges, creating a supportive community that ultimately enhances the quality of life for those affected.
