About

Have you been diagnosed with ataxia?

Do you know someone affected by ataxia?
 

An estimated 150,000 people in the United States are affected by hereditary and sporadic ataxias, a group of neurological disorders which are chronic and progressive conditions affecting coordination. Ataxia strikes without regard to age, gender, or race.

You are not alone!  The Greater Atlanta Ataxia Support Group is a self‐help organization serving both individuals affected by all types of ataxia, as well as their families, caregivers, and others who have a direct interest in providing support to people with ataxia.

Our meetings foster a safe, welcoming atmosphere allowing members to share their experiences while gaining support, encouragement and information to improve the quality of their lives. Topics of interest vary and may include guest speakers and/or current medical updates. Many of our members travel from all areas of Georgia and the Southeast.
