News:

Portland Support Group!

We are pleased to announce that we're now holding monthly parent support group meetings at Maine Medical Center in Portland. The meetings are held from 7:00 to 9:00 pm, on the fourth Wednesday of each month, at MMC's Dana Center. The group is particularly of interest to parents of children with Tourette Syndrome, but it is open to anyone who would like to join us. For details and directions, please visit the support group's details page.

Tourette Syndrome Camp: June 22-28

Tourette Syndrome Camping Organization will be hosting its summer program "Tourette Syndrome Camp USA" from June 22 through June 28 at YMCA Camp Duncan, near Chicago. The program is for boys and girls between the ages of 8 and 15 who have Tourette Syndrome. For more information or to apply, please visit the Tourette Syndrome Camping Organization's Web site at www.tourettecamp.com.

Chapter Business Meetings

We also have monthly chapter business meetings at Maine Medical Center in Portland. The meetings are held just prior to the support group meetings - from 6:00 to 7:00 pm - in the same location. If you are interested in volunteering your time to help our chapter provide support to local families and individuals with Tourette Syndrome, you may be interested in participating in one or more of these meetings. They are our forum for discussing new chapter services, support group plans (including new support group locations and programming), fundraising ideas, and anything other chapter business. For directions, please refer to the Directions section of the Portland Support Group page.
