Restore Funding for Tourette Syndrome in PA State Budget

Give back the money

My daughter has tourette syndrome and it is truly devilitating. Through so many doctors and therapist visits we've learned that there isn't a whole lot of awareness and knowledge of TS. Now I see why, our federal, state, and local governments don't dedicate a lot of any effort to helping the people who have this challenge out. We need this funding!!!!

My son needs this. My family needs this. The TS community needs this! Please give back the funding! Help us further research to help our loved ones that suffer with this dibilatating disorder!

With a 14 yr old son with severe TS I do not know how funding can be cut. Pyschiatrics, Neurologists multiple medicines a juggling panic and anxiety attacks between 5 family members says that funding is needed

PLEASE keep this MOST important funding for our 10 year old son and every other person who struggles with TS!!!

Hope you get a lot of support for this important oetition

I am a 35 year old woman suffering from Tourette's and many of the conditions that occur with it. I was diagnosed with Tourette's a few years ago, and PA-TSA has been an incredible help with connecting me with not only information on understanding Tourette's and what is happening with my mind and body, but also with sympathetic and caring people who understand what I am going through. PA-TSA needs this funding to help spread awareness for Tourette's, so children who have it won't be teased and bullied by something they can't control. And that parents and people who have Tourette's have a place to go for info and support.

The children affected by this are our future so lets help them.

Restore funding leaving no child behind

Children will be greatly affected if

Please save Tourette's Syndrome Funding!

Many children, adults with Tourette Syndrome need the help and advocacy

Please continue the funding for Tourette Syndrome

Please continue the funding for Tourette Syndrome in Pennsylvania

I am person who suffers with TS+. This is not something that should be put on the back burner, the lack of funding not only negatively effects the lives of the people who have TS but also those who love and care for them...shame on you Corbett.

As a mother of a 20yr old son who has Tourette's Syndrome complete with echolalia, copralalia, rage or 'neurological storms' and also is affected by Tardive Dyskinesia due to long term use of Orap, it is *imperative* that support for PA-TSA continue!!! As a single mother who recvd support from PA-TSA many years ago in working w/ the school district in middle school and high school to teach others, my son learned to be his own advocate. He is now facing the same challenges in college in Md. but now has tools to succeed because of the support from PA-TSA. No more cutting of funding for PA-TSA! The support of our loved one affected by Tourette's Syndrome and the education of the public *must continue*. I beg anyone who reads this msg to contact our gov't to support PA-TSA!!!! Thank you..

Help these kids!
