This month, NJCTS took part in Abilities Day at Centenary College in Hackettstown.<\/p>\n<p>Myself and volunteer Maddie Pucciarello discussed the programs and services of NJCTS with Centenary students, local teachers and school administrators.<\/p>\n<p>Abilities Day was a wonderful opportunity for us to show students planning to become educators how education outreach provided by NJCTS can help them in their future careers to improve the lives of young students.<\/p>\n<p>During the 150minute presentation, we shared information about NJCTS. Pucciarello, a graduate student in public health at Rutgers University, discussed her experience with Tourette Syndrome and how she became involved with the organization.<\/p>\n<p>Tourette Syndrome is a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary movements or sounds known as tics. As many as 1 in 100 school-aged children show signs of TS, which is frequently accompanied by ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression, anxiety or learning disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>We are looking forward to returning to Centenary to deliver an in-service presentation for education students on the topic of Tourette Syndrome and its associated disorders.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Tourette Syndrome\u00a0the Center and its Education Outreach Program, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/njcts.org\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>www.njcts.org<\/strong><\/a> or call 908-575-7350.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/njcts.org\/tsparents\/njcts-discusses-tourette-syndrome-at-centenary-college-abilities-day\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HACKETTSTOWN &#8212; Spreading awareness of Tourette Syndrome and providing world-class resources is at the heart of the New Jersey Center for Tourette Syndrome&#8217;s (NJCTS) mission.
