BRAD COHEN TOURETTE FOUNDATION

It is Brad’s goal to make a difference one day at a time. This is why he started
the Brad Cohen Tourette Foundation (BCTF), a 501(c)(3) non-profit to help raise
money to help children with Tourette syndrome learn how to exist in the real
world with others who don’t understand. We support the socialization,
achievement, and education of those with Tourette syndrome and the
non-profit/tax-exempt organizations that focus on the needs of those with
Tourette syndrome.

A DYNAMIC SPEAKER WHO FILLS THE ROOM WITH ENERGY AND EMOTION


"Brad gets up, and all of a sudden you could just sort of feel the energy in the

the kids were crying, and the next minute they were rolling on the floor
laughing. Eyes were wide open."


"He was describing his life. It was humiliating. I pretty much bombed, and this
guy is hitting a grand slam in the World Series. He gets this standing ovation,
and the place is going nuts."


Tim Shriver, Chairman of Special Olympics
