Let's Create a Quilt of Stories
The Tourette Association of America has designed a virtual quilt to showcase the Tourette Syndrome and Tic Disorder community, entwined with stories of inspiration, hope and community. This virtual quilt is a narrative of our unique experiences and stories to embrace and comfort one another. TS may impact everyone differently, but we are all woven together in community. It symbolizes our resilience, resourcefulness, and optimism. We are stronger together.

Tourette Expressions Apparel
Craig Mollins has launched a Tourette Syndrome apparel project. Where he makes Tourette inspired paintings, and puts them on clothing. The inspiration is to help raise awareness of Tourette Syndrome, and to give people who have Tourette a creative way to let others know and create conversation and to educate.
More than 320 advocates participated in Tourette National Advocacy Day, in Washington, DC, but we still need you to Submit a take action letter and ask others to do the same so we can ensure improved support and vital funding for the Tourette Syndrome and Tic Disorders community!
Submitting a Take Action Letter takes less than 2 minutes and makes a huge impact. Simply fill in the form, then press Send Message. If you are comfortable, you are invited to add a personal story to the letter.
When you're finished submitting your letter, don't forget to let everyone know by sharing a post on social media with #IAdvocateFor and tagging the TAA. We would love to reshare your post. Tell the world who you're advocating for!
