About Our Organization

In June 2016 we held our first cafe in Fairfax, Virginia with Insight Memory Care center as our gracious hosts. We modeled our cafés on their Memory Café concept that provides a safe and supportive environment for people to get together. Having it on good authority from our dear friend Bob, that people with Parkinson’s can be enticed with donuts, we offer donuts and coffee.
​
We confirmed our belief that when people come together in an informal social environment, the care and support they give each other is invaluable. When people share their experiences and form friendships, they are comforted to know that they are not alone.

In 2017 we established Parkinson Social Network as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to offering more opportunities for people touched by Parkinson’s to come together and inspire each other to make the most of life with Parkinson’s.
