I am writing a grant to fund a project to teach newly diagnosed PWP and their families about the illness using multimedia CD-ROM technology. I would like to ask a couple of questions. I have also askedthe questions of a support group I belong to. 1) What type of information do you think the new PWP needs to know? 2) What type of information do you think caregivers should know? 3) Would you use a computer program that might have information about PD? Some of the information I have read about PWP, gives statistics about how many have the illness and information about gender but they don't discuss the breakdown according to race. I have read that it is not as common in African-Americans and Asians. Does anyone know the racial breakdown? Thanks in advanced.
