Does anyone know a group or an event where people with early onset can meet other people with early onset? Sometimes I feel like it would be great To socialize with certain like-minded people.

Pardon my ignorance. Does early onset mean early stages of PD, or does it mean PD at an early age?

No problem -early age onset. Some people have been diagnosed in their 20's.
