TNA, established in 1990 by founding President Claire Patterson and a board of directors comprised of TN patients and their families, develops programs and activities to provide information, mutual aid, support and encouragement to TN patients, related facial pain patients, and their families. The organization seeks to serve as a resource and information center, to centralize current data and medical efforts for effective treatment of this disorder. Involvement in conferences, such as this, is one of the ways TNA helps to make information on all forms of TN treatment available. However, participation is not to be construed as an endorsement of any one treatment or presenter.
