"Within Our Reach" Symposium

In careful consideration of our theme, “LIVING WELL: You Can Thrive in the Days to Come,” as well as the unprecedented events of the past year, we have new ideas to help you live well and thrive in the midst of challenges. Because we want everyone to feel comfortable and stay healthy, we will host the annual symposium virtually on October 1, 2021, instead of in-person. You can still enjoy all of the symposium’s workshops and information sessions from the comfort of your own home.

Tickets for the new virtual symposium are $25.00 per household.

Within Our Reach is our unique patient educational program that recognizes the importance of engaging patients, caregivers and family members in an active process to learn the new skills necessary to manage their chronic medical condition.

She currently serves as Vice President of the Pass to Pass Board of Directors, a nonprofit dedicated to raising Parkinson’s disease awareness while supporting hikers with PD.
