Speech and swallowing difficulties affect up to 90% of people with Parkinson's. Swallowing problems can lead to aspiration pneumonia, the leading cause of death in Parkinson's. Yet only 3 to 4% receive the vital speech therapy they need. The need to address this gap is urgent.
Since 2008, our speech and swallowing therapy has been offered in our clinic at no cost. We are helping people with Parkinson's reclaim their confidence and their connections. We are helping them swallow safely without coughing or choking. No patient has ever been denied treatment at our clinic due to insurance or financial restrictions.
89% of our budget is spent on patient care.
Because of donors like you, thousands of people have already REGAINED and RETAINED their speech and swallowing. Every donation is an achievement.
Your donation will help people with Parkinson's strengthen their speech, protect their swallowing, and stay connected to their loved ones.
