A Parkinson’s diagnosis can bring a lot of questions. What might change day to day? How can I support someone I love? Who can help us figure out what comes next?

Through a new partnership with the Parkinson Association of Alabama, CJFS is helping families work through those questions. The association trained our clinical staff to better recognize the signs and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and understand how it can affect daily life.

We’re now supporting people living with Parkinson’s through Counseling and Senior Solutions. Counseling offers space to talk through the stress, uncertainty, and changes that can come with a diagnosis. Through Senior Solutions, older adults and their families can sort through practical concerns, explore available resources, and make a plan that supports independence.

Together, we’re helping families facing Parkinson’s figure out what they need today and where to turn as those needs change.

If you or someone you love is living with Parkinson’s and you’re wondering where to start, call CJFS at 205-879-3438. Thank you to the Parkinson Association of Alabama for sharing your expertise with our team and partnering with CJFS to help families navigate what’s next.
