Today, Congressman Albio Sires (D-NJ) introduced a resolution instituting a national TS Wednesday!
Speaking to the House of Representatives, Rep. Sires said Tourette Syndrome is “a misunderstood disorder affecting an unknown number of people [because TS is] often misdiagnosed.” He continued, by issuing a call for TS awareness and recognized the work of NJ Center for Tourette Syndrome and Associated Disorders as “the first and only program of its kind in the nation and serves as the model for others” across the country.
This awareness effort in Washington echoes the advocacy by New Jersey State Senator Kip Bateman to designate “Wednesday is TS Day!” throughout the Garden State.
We are enormously grateful to Congressman Sires and his staff for surprising us with this fantastic news!
Join us in celebrating by helping to spread the word that “Wednesday is TS Day!”
