The Annual Public Policy Forum was designed to increase awareness about Parkinson's disease and empower advocates, who travel from across the country to participate. The Forum brings the Parkinson's community together in order to educate and empower them and give them an active role in changing their fate. It is an invaluable tool that unites the community with one voice. The Forum serves as the premier educational program for Parkinson's advocates. It provides participants with concrete skills so they can more effectively energize their local Parkinson's community and better convey their message. The Forum also provides a venue for the nation's top scientific researchers, NIH officials and Parkinson's advocates to join forces toward their common goal-- finding a cure for Parkinson's disease. ### 9th Annual Morris K. Udall Awards Dinner The 2002 Udall Awards dinner will be held: Tuesday, May 21 at 6:30pm Capital Hilton 1001- 16th Street, NW Washington, D.C. 20036 The Annual Morris K. Udall Awards Dinner is an opportunity to remember Mo Udall and honor his legacy. Mo Udall served in the U.S. House of Representatives for 30 years and was a candidate for the Democratic Presidential nomination in 1976. He infused American politics with his signature style of humor, grace and dignity. Congressman Udall died of Parkinson's disease in December 1998, however, his determination to live a full and vigorous life gained him great admiration. In recognition of Mo's strength and courage, the Parkinson's Action Network presents the Morris K. Udall Award for Public Service to individuals whose personal style and achievements have added to the civility of decency of public policy debate.
