Since our inception in 1981, the Central Ohio Parkinson Society has been committed to our Mission of being “A non-profit organization dedicated to providing support to individuals affected by Parkinson’s disease through support groups, education, awareness and the support of research.” It is our goal to use this website as a conduit to provide resources to the Parkinson Community as an integral part of meeting our Mission.
The new design begins with the incorporation of our agency logo. Designed by Brad Webb, a Board Member for our agency, the tulip is the international symbol for Parkinson’s disease (PD), and the hands that are used to make the petals of the tulip signify the support we offer.
The navigation bars below the logo will group together key components of our website to allow you a more streamlined opportunity to find the resources you are seeking.At this point, some of the options may be limited, but keep checking back as we add more robust information, including information about PD, details of our programs and services, upcoming events, links to additional resources and an expanded archive for past newsletters.
Our goal for this website is to educate and support individuals and families with PD.If you have any comments, thoughts or suggestions on how this site can help you more, please feel free to send them to us at comments@centralohioparkinson.org
