The month was observed in the city of Enterprise and across the nation to recognize the need for more education about the disease that affects approximately 1 million people in the United States. A chronic, progressive neurological disease and the most common neurodegenerative disease in the United States, Parkinson’s is the 14th leading cause of death in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
