Iowa Optimism Walk

Join us for the APDA Optimism Walk!

Walkers will come together nationwide in 2025 to step towards supporting all people affected by Parkinson’s disease. Your fundraising dollars at the Iowa walk will go directly toward the local community, expanding local program and services to help more people with Parkinson’s disease live life to the fullest, as well as fund cutting-edge research to help find better treatments and ultimately, a cure.
