Why Education Matters
DysCourse is held in honor of Christina Tournant, a vibrant young woman who was told it was “all in her head.” She was left unvalidated and hopeless due to lack of education in the medical community and ultimately took her own life. DysCourse seeks to provide everyone impacted by dysautonomia with the education, empowerment, and hope that Christina never received.
