regional support groups
Our regional support groups are designed to provide a welcoming space for individuals and families affected by Tourette Syndrome and Tic Disorders to connect, share experiences, and support one another. While we do not currently offer in-person support group options, we host a weekly virtual support group every Wednesday at 6:00 PM that is open to community members across the region. This online group offers connection, conversation, and shared understanding from the comfort of home. You can register to join the weekly support group here.
If you have interest in helping with or hosting a support group/meetup in your area, please email maximus.charney@tourette.org.
Youth Ambassador Program:
The national Tourette Association of America offers a wonderful program called the Youth Ambassador Program. This program brings together, trains, and supports youth and young adults to advocate for and talk about TS and Tic Disorders in their community, with their elected officials, and before their peers. A new cohort of TAA Ambassadors is welcomed in and trained in Washington, D.C. every March. The training culminates with our annual “trip to the Hill” on Tourette National Advocacy Day where Ambassadors have the opportunity to discuss TS and Tic Disorders with Congress. Registration for Advocacy Day 2026 is currently closed.
