Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at PSSO!

Today, we celebrate the simple things that mean the most: time with loved ones, a sense of belonging, and the people who are there for one another.

We’re grateful to share in that spirit with our Parkinson’s community across southwestern Ontario.

Wishing you a warm and joyful holiday! 🍂🦃
