The Palo Alto Support Group has moved again! Join us at Channing House, second Wednesday of each month, 2:30-4pm.

September 27, 2019 By Parkinson's Community Help

The Palo Alto Parkinson’s Support Group meeting is moving again!  Our Wednesday, October 9th support group meeting will be in our new home at Channing House, 850 Webster St., Palo Alto.  Read more on how to find the new meeting location and join our email reminder list.

After 20 years at Avenidas — with a hiatus of 18 months when we were at Little House Activity Center in Menlo Park — the Palo Alto Parkinson’s Disease (PD) Support Group meeting is moving to Channing House, another downtown Palo Alto location.  This move is effective as of October 9, 2019.   This group provides educational speakers for anyone wanting to learn more about PD.  Meetings are free and open to the public.  No RSVP is required.

Coming soon!  Read about October 9th speaker.

Event Details:

What:
Palo Alto Parkinson’s Disease Support Group

Free, and open to the public.  No RSVP required.

When:
2nd Wednesday of each month, 2:30 – 4pm.

For December’s meeting, we may have a social gathering.

Where:
Auditorium
Channing House, 850 Webster Street, Palo Alto 94301 (Map)

As you enter, get a “visitor badge” from the front desk.  The group meets in the Auditorium, which is on the main floor.  The front desk can direct you.
Stanford will have a check-in table and materials near the entrance to the Auditorium.

The building is accessible to anyone with disabilities.  Restrooms are near the front desk.

Parking:
There is plenty of free street parking along Webster, Channing (which runs eastbound only), and Homer (which runs westbound only).  The parking spaces are limited to two hours.

Some accessible parking spaces are available near the Channing House entrance at 850 Webster St.  Passengers may be dropped off at the front entrance.
Valet parking is also available.

Want to learn more?
Join the group’s email list by contacting the support group leader, Robin Riddle, by email or phone (650-724-6090).  We send out two reminders emails per month — one about a week before each meeting and one usually a day before each meeting.  In those emails, we share guest speaker details (name, affiliation, and topic).

Note that these meetings are NOT recorded.  In general, the only way to receive information shared by the guest speaker is to attend the meeting.  If you can’t make it but are interested in the meeting topic, we suggest you ask a friend or family member to attend on your behalf.
