Bringing World Parkinson’s Congress Research Back to Our Community

Parkinson’s Orange County is excited to launch a special Ask An Expert: WPC Education Series Event, designed to bring some of the most valuable insights from the World Parkinson’s Congress directly back to our members, care partners, families, and community.

The World Parkinson’s Congress brings together people living with Parkinson’s, care partners, clinicians, researchers, advocates, and organizations from around the world to share the latest information in Parkinson’s care, research, treatment, wellness, and quality of life. With so much important information presented, our goal is to help translate key takeaways into practical, easy-to-understand tools that can support everyday life with Parkinson’s.

This special education series will take place as part of Parkinson’s Orange County’s ongoing Ask An Expert program, held every 4th Thursday at 12:00 PM via Zoom.

The first session will be held:

Thursday, June 25, 2026
 12:00 PM
 Via Zoom, https://us06web.zoom.us/j/5078977028

During this workshop, Parkinson’s Orange County will share highlights and meaningful updates from the World Parkinson’s Congress, focusing on the information most relevant to our members. Topics may include emerging research, exercise and wellness strategies, cognitive health, care partner support, new approaches to treatment, and practical conversations that can help people living with Parkinson’s feel more informed and empowered.

This series is designed for people living with Parkinson’s, care partners, family members, and community members who want to better understand current Parkinson’s research without feeling overwhelmed by technical language. Each session will focus on turning research into real-life ideas, tools, and conversations that support quality of life.

The workshop will also be recorded, so members who are unable to attend live will still can watch and learn from the session afterward.

Parkinson’s Orange County remains committed to making education accessible, practical, and hopeful. We look forward to sharing what we learned at the World Parkinson’s Congress and continuing to bring meaningful resources back to the Orange County Parkinson’s community.
