It's called Advocacy To The Rescue, and the feedback so far has been overwhelmingly positive. The TS community is about to see a huge increase in powerful parent advocates!

It’s really easy to take part: Just click on the Submit Your Tic button, enter a name and description for your tic, then click Submit. That’s all there is to it. You can add as many different tics as you’d like. You can also ‘like’ the tics that are already there or leave a comment. Don’t forget to tell your friends!
