April was Parkinson\u2019s Awareness month and our extraordinary team of volunteer board members was very active in activities and meetings related to increasing awareness and knowledge of the condition.\n<br><br>\nWe freshened up our logo, launched a new website, and started including our newsletter content in our CAPS blog to allow easier access to the valuable information that we offer (which will continue to evolve over the months ahead). This is in response to the survey we conducted in March, which also led us to our current efforts to develop new support group segments focusing on the later stages of PD. We have also scheduled our first in person monthly meeting in over two years on May 19, 2022. See below for more information on this in person luncheon meeting and sign up for our newsletter to stay up to date on future events.\n<br><br>\nWe have been expanding our partnerships in order to offer more education and social engagements such as the luncheon meeting on May 19, co-sponsored with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abbvie.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><b><i>AbbVie<\/b><\/i><\/a>.\nI am also pleased to announce a new relationship with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.deorodevices.com target=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><b><i>De Oro Devices<\/b><\/i><\/a>, the manufacturer of NexStride, an unobtrusive device that helps people with Parkinson's to minimize, overcome, and prevent frustrating and debilitating freezing episodes.\n<br><br>\nA study at the University of Rochester concluded that individuals diagnosed with PD doubled in the past 25 years and is expected to double again in the next 25 years. The population of Austin is growing so fast that it is expected to double by 2040.  If the study\u2019s estimates are correct there will be approximately 50,000 individuals diagnosed with PD in the Austin area by 2040! Yikes!\nCAPS has been serving the needs of individuals with PD and their care-partners for over 35 years and we are planning for at least another 35.  We have only been able to serve for so long based on the kindness and generosity of individuals who care to financially donate or volunteer their time for individuals in need.  It is not any different going forward. \n<br><br>\nTake care and be well.\n<br>\n<i>Victor <\/i>\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f3959d elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"8f3959d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-896c1c2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"896c1c2\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9ce5cd0\" data-id=\"9ce5cd0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-389234f elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"389234f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-cf0ccdb elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cf0ccdb\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-56c1c00\" data-id=\"56c1c00\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-86924ad elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"86924ad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*!
