About Our Organization…

Parkinson Voice Project was founded on December 13, 2005. Our mission is to help people with Parkinson’s REGAIN and RETAIN their speech and swallowing. An estimated ten million people worldwide live with Parkinson’s, and ninety percent need our services.

In 2010, we developed a highly effective, evidence-based speech treatment for people with Parkinson’s called the SPEAK OUT!® Therapy Program. We treat patients throughout Texas from our clinic in Richardson, Texas (in-person and online). We are also replicating our SPEAK OUT! Therapy Program across the U.S. and abroad by training speech-language pathologists and graduate students worldwide.

Since 2008, we have uniquely funded our nonprofit organization through a Pay It Forward program. No patient has ever been denied treatment due to financial limitations or insurance restrictions. Patients receive all the speech therapy they need. We provide all our patient care services at no charge, and we also don’t bill Medicare or insurance.
