We must re-instate funding for PATSA and tourette syndrome support to the state. Their work in educating the public cannot be understated! Please do not forget about our children or our families!

Please support Pennsylvania families effected by Tourette Syndrome by restoring funding for PATSA. They have provided my family with valuable support through their family camp, educational materials and especially their advocacy program. PATSA provides essential supports to the TS community. Whether it is a family new to the diagnosis or a family who has experience, PATSA is there for us.

PATSA has provided such critical support for my daughter and grandson. Their services are critical to PA. Please reinstate this funding.

Having PA TSA come to our school was invaluable. Please reinstate funding to help all Pennsylvanians understand TS and how we all can help.

I have worked with PATSA since 1985 when My 7 year old son was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome. I was told he was the only person in the WHOLE WOLD who has Tourette Syndrome. That is not ture. There are many people in PENNSYLVANIA who have Tourette Syndrome. Many have worse symptoms than my son has. I am a contact person in the Erie area and try to help those in the Erie area struggling with Tourette Syndrome. I know budget issues are difficult for everyone but please do not drop PATSA from your line item budget. There are many that are counting on help that would not be able to receive it without the funding available!

Please seriously consider restoring funding. This program is part ant and has made a significant difference for those families affected by Tourette syndrome.

Please do not take funding from this organization. Without the help my son received, I am sure that he would not be where he is today - a senior @ PSU majoring in Civil Eng & minoring in Japanese. Elementary, Middle & High schools labeled him emotionally disturbed & tried to boot him out to IU13. Instead TSA-PA helped me get the assistance he needed to be successful in regular education.

Please restore this very valuable funding. My nephew and his family have benefited greatly from the wonderful services provide by PA-TSA. Please, please re-consider your decision, these services are vital to these individuals, their families, schools, etc. Thank you for your consideration.

Please restore this funding - It is crucial! The services provided by this small agency are widespread across the state and have long-term impact on schools, health care providers, parents, and the general public. The training and advocacy of the PA TSA are not supported by any other group. My son with TS benefited greatly and I don't know what we would have done without this support.
