Activities/ Projects

The Philippine Tourette Syndrome Association continuously pushes its way to more awareness about Tourette Syndrome in the Philippines. As it is dynamic and multi- faceted in nature, the organization continuously drives to advocate people with Tourette Syndrome and their families. As such, there is an incessant innovation to develop activities and/or projects that will substantiate the goals of the organization.

The following are the organization's current and future activities/ projects:






Since 2007, PTSA hasn't stop meeting individuals with Tourette Syndrome, their families, their friends and even professionals who wanted to know about the disorder. For 3 years and counting, the organization has been very active in providing "coffee conversations" for these people. These people just call us to meet them and talk about Tourette Syndrome. The organization can be contacted anytime for TS "Small Talks".



Every now and then, PTSA does "Campus Tours" providing colloquiums onTourette Syndrome and details about the organization. The seminars are being organized by the Support Group Coordinators in each area. The organization can be contacted anytime if you want Tourette Syndrome to be presented in your school, hospital, or just anywhere. If there is an available TS Support Group Coordinator nearest you, please contact them to help you organize a TS Seminar in your area. We are very willing to speak about Tourette Syndrome on your behalf. Your area could be our next "Campus Tour", contact us now!

The Philippine Tourette Syndrome Association hopes to provide a summer recreation program for all the members of the organization. This would instill camaraderie among members and strengthen the PTSA community. This would primarily be a venue to explain further issues surrounding Tourette Syndrome and their application to the daily lives of people with Tourette Syndrome, their families and friends. Not only that, the program constitutes activities for uplifting their self- esteem, confidence and motivations in life. Aside from that, there will be sports activities headed by Coach Stauro Punongbayan (a taekwondo blackbelter/ coach/ instructor). Finally, the program will end with a night of musical fun and presentations. The members get to showcase their talents by their musical numbers.

For the organization's primary objective of advocating people with Tourette Syndrome and increasing awareness of the disorder in the Philippines, we strive to produce materials that will substantiate those goals.
