Ending Parkinson’s Starts With Us.
PD Avengers is a global alliance of people with Parkinson’s, care partners, researchers,
clinicians, and advocates united to add urgency to ending Parkinson’s disease.
Founded in 2020, PD Avengers is a patient-led global movement built on urgency, collaboration, and action.
What began as a small group of advocates has grown into a worldwide alliance working to accelerate research, improve care, and drive policy change.
We focus on three pillars:
Advocacy
Research
Wellness
