Welcome to the Mississippi Chapter of the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA). The goal of the MS Chapter APDA is to provide key information and support to our Parkinson Community. With the help of our APDA Information and Referral Center (I&R Center), we offer a network of support to the patient, caregiver, and health provider while supporting the efforts "to find a cure to ease the burden" of Parkinson's Disease.

Help us to name our "Name your Newsletter"!
The MS Chapter American Parkinson Disease Association had been working diligently to heighten Parkinson disease awareness. One goal was to publish a newsletter, in order to keep you all up to date of what is going on in our state and nationally in regards to Parkinson’s.So we would like the help of all of you - the readers - in giving your newsletter a name, and are doing it in the form of this contest, called "Name the Newsletter".
If you would like to participate in naming our newsletter, click here to review the rules and instructions. Thank you for your participation.
Would you also, please, send in suggestions on topics that you would like discussed in the newsletter? We plan to have a section where you send in questions and Dr. Voulters and other professionals will answer them in the newsletter. Send in your suggestions and/or questions to newsletter@msapda.org.
