2024 Optimism Award Nomination

Optimism Award winners exemplify the APDA tagline of “Strength in optimism, hope in progress” by having a meaningful impact on the Parkinson’s community through support, education, wellness, and/or research. The Optimism Award celebrates people who are demonstrating optimism through their important contributions to the Parkinson’s community, and providing inspiration and hope for all that can be achieved.

We are surrounded by extraordinary individuals who every day are making a difference in the lives of people living Parkinson’s disease. Thank you for helping us to recognize those people by submitting your nominations for the APDA Optimism Awards.
