About a decade ago, Neal Tomita started to lose his voice. He has Parkinson’s, and voice and speech problems are a common issue.

This hobby has helped him speak louder, communicate more confidently and reconnect with others: playing the harmonica. https://wapo.st/4xr4LpM

Creativity can look like a dance class, a support group, or a room where people truly understand.

At Friends of Parkinson’s, we bring those pieces together through music therapy, dance classes, educational workshops, wellness activities, and support groups designed to improve quality of life for people affected by Parkinson’s. We connect, learn, and support one another in ways that build resilience, hope, and community.

If our programs have been part of your journey, we’d love to hear what community at Friends of Parkinson’s means to you.

What keeps Art Therapy and Soulful Scribe going month after month?

Steady support. At Friends of Parkinson’s, recurring gifts help us provide materials, facilitators, and outreach so these programs can continue to offer connection, creativity, and support for people affected by Parkinson’s.

A creative practice can be a steady source of support.

At Friends of Parkinson’s, we know art and journaling can do more than fill a page. Painting, drawing, and writing can support fine motor skills, ease anxiety, lift mood, and create space for self-expression.

Research also shows regular art therapy can improve emotional well-being and self-esteem for people living with Parkinson’s. Create, reflect, and connect in ways that build resilience and community.

Strength is found in the moments we create together.

At Friends of Parkinson’s, our Art Therapy program is one way we connect, express, and find support as a community. Donor support helps make programs like this possible, creating space for creativity, reflection, and connection.

We’re grateful to everyone who stands with our Parkinson’s community.
