Create an impact directly from your own home. Share your story and discuss the issues that matter most to the Tourette Syndrome and Tic Disorder community with your Representative and Senators. Hearing from you allows the elected officials to better understand the needs of the approximately one million people in the United States living with TS or other Tic Disorders.

The event is open to people of all ages. Unsure of where to start? Register today and attend the advocacy training webinar on Wednesday, February 10, 2021, at 8pm EST. During the webinar, you will learn about the TAA's priority issues, how to conduct a meeting, and key talking points to utilize. You'll also be able to join us on Tuesday, March 2, 2021 for a Pre-Advocacy Day Evening Kick-off!
