According to the Federal Department of Justice, Tourette Syndrome is a disability covered by the ADA.

Is Tourettes a special need?

Generally, children with TS have the same intelligence range as other children. But problems with tics, often combined with attention deficits and other learning difficulties, can mean that children with TS will need special education assistance.

Can I claim benefits for Tourettes?

Benefits. If you are unable to work because of your TS, or need help with meeting the extra costs you face from having a long term health condition, you may be entitled to financial support.
