Tourette Calgary Description
Tourette Syndrome or TS is a neurodevolopmental or brain-based condition that causes people who have it to make involuntary sounds and movements called tics.
Tourette Calgary is a Chapter of Tourette Canada. We are a voluntary organization, dedicated to improving the quality of life for those with or affected by Tourette Syndrome through programs of: education, advocacy, self-help and the promotion of research.
Our members include children, youth and adults with TS, as well as their families, educators, clinicians and other allied professionals. We also support members of their community with whom they interact, such as first responders and recreational centre employees.
