Central Texas Ataxia Support Group
A supportive and resourceful outlet for Ataxians, their family and friends! We are located in the Austin area and welcome anyone in the surrounding Hill Country and all of Central Texas. Even if you are just passing through, we'd love to have you.
 
Ataxians, Family & Friends
Our support group will kick off in November to offer networking opportunities for Ataxians, their family and friends in the Austin area to make the best of a challenging diagnosis. A support group provides an opportunity to share with others your experiences with Ataxia including the positive and negative along with the emotional & physical struggles those affected by Ataxia are faced with. In addition, it also serves to educate patients, their family and medical professionals as well about Ataxia and its associated challenges as well as available treatments & equipment to ease the fight. Be sure to join us beforehand at the 2009 International Ataxia Awareness Day (IAAD) Event on September 26, 2009 in Georgetown, TX.
