The Speak Out!® Therapy Program, developed by Parkinson Voice Project
(PVP), helps people with Parkinson’s and related neurological disorders
regain and retain their speech and swallowing.

Recognized by Time Magazine and CES for their innovation, The Whispp app is a product to watch.We sincerely hope that Whispp will become part of the operating system of at least one smart phone manufacturer to bring another level of accessibility directly to users.
