Save the Date The Parkinson’s Association of Southwest Florida (PASWFL) is thrilled to announce its signature annual fundraising event, A Step Forward: Overcoming Obstacles, set for Friday, March 20, 2026, at the luxurious LaPlaya Beach & Golf Resort in Naples. This empowering luncheon will feature an extraordinary speaker—Staff Sergeant (Ret.) Johnny “Joey” Jones, a decorated Marine veteran, FOX News contributor, and national advocate for veterans and resilience. Joey Jones brings a story of unimaginable adversity transformed into purpose.

His keynote will touch hearts and uplift spirits as he shares how personal tragedy became a powerful platform for service, leadership, and hope. Guests will also hear firsthand stories of perseverance from PASWFL members who live daily with Parkinson’s Disease (PD), making the event not only a fundraiser but a deeply moving celebration of courage in the face of life’s toughest battles.
