The
Tourette Syndrome Association of Ontario (TSAO) was
founded in 1997 as a provincial organization, independent
and not governed by any higher body, whose mission is
to support TS sufferers and their families with the
day to day issues surrounding this medical disorder.
The TSAO accomplishes this support through the following:
The formation of chapters and support groups within
the province which allow TS sufferers and their families
an opportunity to support each other through the exchange
of information.
The
presentation of workshops and lectures on TS to agencies
in the fields of health care, education, law enforcement
and various levels of government. The TSAO also offers
a 24 hour toll-free telephone service - (888) 274-2226
- supplying not only information, but moral support
to TS sufferers and their families.
