During our May care partners webinar, "Finding our footing,
again: the changing roles of care partners," mental health
educator and care partner, Rebecca Higgins, explored the changing
roles of care partners and the emotional and practical implications
of these changes. Rebecca also shared practical take-away tools for
navigating change.

Making a difference
Parkinson Canada is proud to recognize Rexall Care Network (RCN) as
this month's webinar supporter. RCN's mission - to
support care partners so they can care for the ones they love -
aligns with our commitment to ensuring that people living with
Parkinson's and their care partners have the tools, support,
and hope they need to thrive.
We invite you to take part in RCN's Bubble Campaign, running
until June 7, at participating Rexall stores across Ontario and
Western Canada. By making a small donation at the checkout,
you'll be helping Parkinson Canada provide vital support,
resources, and hope to over 110,000 people living with
Parkinson's in Canada - and to the care partners who stand
beside them.
