When Mrs. Jeanne C. Levey founded the National Parkinson Foundation prior to 1957, little was known about Parkinson disease. In those days there was no levodopa, no specific medications, no deep-brain stimulation, no professional referrals, and very little knowledge about the disease itself. Today NPF is the largest and oldest national Parkinson foundation in the United States. NPF supports Parkinson-related research, patient care, education, training, and outreach. The Foundation has over 1,000 active support groups.
