SOCIAL MEDIA

Social Media can be an excellent opportunity to stay connected and engage with others on the Parkinson's journey. The key to a successful and healthy social media engagement is to choose the groups and pages that most interest you, and most align with your style for how you like to receive information.

The Parkinson Association of Alabama has an official Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter account. Each of these pages will provide updates and information on the latest events and happenings as related to the Parkinson Association of Alabama (PAA). We will promote events and ways in which you can become more involved with your local Parkinson Association group. Education will also be shared from our series of blogs. To subscribe or follow these pages, please go to the below links:

In addition to these pages, the Parkinson Association of Alabama also hosts three active Facebook Groups. The purpose of these groups are to share educational resources, and connect those living with Parkinson's or Care Partners of those living with Parkinson's throughout Alabama.
