The Advisory Council on Parkinson’s Research, Care, and Services (ACPRCS) is a Federal advisory committee charged with providing advice to the HHS Secretary on Parkinson’s-related issues, including the creation of a national plan. Through its inclusion of both Federal and public members, the ACPRCS helps to ensure that a wide range of ideas and perspectives are represented and discussed in a public forum. The Council consists of thirteen Federal members and ten non-Federal members, who include people living with Parkinson’s, caregivers, health care providers, researchers, and representatives from advocacy organizations. Non-federal members were selected by the Secretary of Health and Human Services following an open nomination process.
