Standing together
in the fight against Parkinson’s disease.

For almost 15 years, GAPS has led the way to a better life for people in the Georgetown area affected by Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders.

We
enrich lives,
build community,
support families & care partners,
and fight against Parkinson’s disease & movement disorders.

Here's how we enrich lives & build community.

  • Classes

    …help reduce symptoms, enhance motor function and promote overall well-being in a highly social setting.

  • Support Groups

    …provide a supportive space for people to connect, share life, and offer encouragement.

  • Lunch & Learns

    …casual, informative sessions where participants can enjoy a meal while learning about Parkinson's disease.

  • Social Engagements

    …opportunities for individuals and their caregivers to connect, relax, and enjoy life together.

“I have no choice about whether or not I have Parkinson's. I have nothing but choices about how I react to it. In those choices, there's freedom to do a lot of things in areas that I wouldn't have otherwise found myself in.

— Michael J. Fox
