The Tic Disorders in OCD Special Interest Group includes advocates, educators, clinicians/researchers, and individuals with OCD and co-occurring Tourette Syndrome (TS) or other tic disorders (TD). Our group is designed to foster discussion, collect and disseminate educational information, and offer networking
opportunities and research insights. Our intent is to provide a supportive, informed and evidence-based space where people can gain insight, access empirically supported resources, and remain informed about this growing but under-represented population.
