National TSA
Founded in 1972 in Bayside New York, TSA is the only national voluntary non-profit membership organization in this field.   Our
mission is to identify the cause of, find the cure for and control the effects of Tourette Syndrome.  We offer resources and referrals
to help people and their families cope with the problems that occur with TS.  We raise public awareness and counter media
stereotypes about TS.  Our membership includes individuals, families, relatives, and medical and allied professionals working in
the field. Contacting National TSA can get you a list of medical professionals, information and referral to many resources, and
contact information for your local chapter. National TSA membership includes membership in your local chapter. Link:  About TSA
