Description: The IETF is an international nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide global educational information, services and support to those affected by essential tremor (ET) and to health care providers, while promoting and funding ET research. Services provided by the IETF include mailing or emailing a free information packet about ET upon request, maintaining an up-to-date listing of physicians specializing in ET, and assisting in forming and maintaining ET support groups. In addition, the IETF conducts several free educational events in cities across the United States every year, and an annual awareness campaign that runs in conjunction with the organization's largest fundraising activity, Tulips for Tremors. Every year, the IETF also funds basic research into the cause(s) of ET. Small grants are awarded to established scientists whose primary interest is tremor disorders. The IETF funds this program in the hope that these scientists will collect sufficient published data to help them qualify for future federal funding that will lead to better treatments and a cure. IETF members receive two copies a year of the member magazine, Tremor Talk and three copies of the research newsletter, The Scoop on Tremor. Articles in both publications are written for the non-medically trained person and discuss recent advances in research, coping techniques and topics of general interest to those with ET. Medical and research articles are written by physicians and researchers who work with patients with ET and/or study ET in laboratories. The International Essential Tremor Foundation is based in Lenexa, Kansas.
