About TAN
Gender gap and geography are not obstacles in Shaking the World to Find a Cure. Essential tremor does not discriminate, is worldwide, and knows no age barrier. Generations X & Y, Baby Boomers, Silent, the Establishment and not yet born inherited or sporadic essential tremor generations, are well represented in the development and implementation of Tremor Action Network activities and programs.
TAN is the first volunteer only 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization created by people diagnosed with essential tremor. The volunteers’ spirit is: “An opportunity to help find better treatments and a cure.”
Tremor Action Network is dedicated to advocating for the millions of diagnosed, undiagnosed children and adults.
