Welcome to TEAM TSA! Our members get fit running, walking or cycling while helping the national Tourette Syndrome Association get One Lap Closer To A Cure!
With your tax deductible gift, TSA can continue to fund a world-wide cutting edge research program to discover a cause and find a cure for TS, while providing educational programs, awareness actvities and other services for people living with TS and their families.
Members of TEAM TSA will be walking in the Crusaders for Tourette Syndrome Walk in Baton Rouge, LA on June. 9, 2012 to raise awareness and funds for local and national programs.
TS, an inherited neurobiological disorder, is characterized by involuntary sudden movements and vocalizations, known as tics. A common misconception is that those affected curse uncontrollably. In fact, less than 10 percent of those affected have what is known as coprolalia. What causes TS is not yet fully understood, and to date, a cure has not been found. It is estimated that one person out of a hundred has a mild form of the disorder and one in one thousand has a severe case of TS.
