PFNCA is a local, independent organization dedicated to improving the lives of those impacted by Parkinson’s disease in the Washington, DC metropolitan area.
For more than 25 years, PFNCA has been providing programs and services to improve the quality of life for those facing Parkinson’s.
While there is no cure for Parkinson’s, those diagnosed with the disease can take steps to live well.
PFNCA provides a network of more than 20 locations where people can attend exercise, communications and education programs on a weekly basis. More than 170 program sessions are offered each month at no cost.
In addition to receiving direct benefit from highly skilled instructors/facilitators, those who participate also meet others facing Parkinson’s and help to understand that they do not face the disease alone.
PFNCA has been named one of the Best Small Non-Profit Organizations in the Greater Washington Region by the Catalogue for Philanthropy.
The Parkinson Foundation of the National Capital Area improves the quality of life of those impacted by Parkinson’s disease, their care partners and families, and fosters a sense of community to ensure that no one battles this disease alone.
