The Youth Ambassador Training Program for the National Tourette Syndrome Association trains teens to raise awareness about TS; to advocate for themselves and for others and to educate their peers and younger children with accurate information by going into classrooms, schools and clubs to teach understanding, sensitivity and tolerance of TS and its symptoms, while displacing the myths and stereotypes that are often attributed to and associated with this misunderstood and misdiagnosed disorder.
Tourette Syndrome (TS) is a widely misunderstood neurobiological disorder characterized by tics, involuntary motor involvements and vocalizations.
