HOW DOES RIDING HELP?
HOPE THROUGH HELP
NTSAD provides comprehensive support services to affected families and individuals through its Peer Support Group (PSG). NTSAD links about 500 parents, grandparents, extended family, affected adults and their families and caregivers to each other via a confidential network. Other services available to PSG members include an Annual Family Conference, PSG directory, quarterly newsletters, and materials and support for fundraising and awareness events.

NTSAD's goals are to direct, fund and promote research to develop treatments and cures. Working with its Scientific Advisory Committee, NTSAD identifies promising therapeutic approaches to fund through the Research Initiative grant program.
RAISE AWARENESS
NTSAD offers educational and awareness programs directly as well as through collaborations with chapters, affiliates and other community partners.
