Educational
Resources for Children With Tourette Syndrome,
ADHD, ADD and OCD
Schools
for Special Needs and Tourette Syndrome
Although
they remain few in number, more schools and
educators are becoming familiar with Tourette
Syndrome and are willing to provide the special
care and attention that TS children need to
enhance their learning ability and ease the
emotional stress they often experience during
school. If you know of a school or educator in
your area that offers special services for
Tourette children, please email Tourette-Syndrome.com all
pertinent information (i.e., names, city, state,
address, etc.) along with a description of the
special care or services they provide. I
will review and publish them on these pages.
