TOMORROW Matthew, Shapiro, TD Advocate & Magician, will be sharing the Magic of Community- a fun, engaging talk explaining how every movement matters in Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) and in magic. The meeting is at 950 Danby Rd. on Monday, May 11th, from 5pm -7pm. Enter through the main front doors and follow the signs.

The impact of tardive dyskinesia (TD) isn’t limited to those who have it. Surveyed care partners shared their loved one’s TD movements had “some” or “a lot” of impact on their ability to be productive, socialize and take care of themselves. Learn more at: http://bit.ly/4a23pre
