About This Cause

The TLC Foundation for BFRB’s mission is to end the suffering caused by hair pulling disorder, skin picking disorder, and related body-focused repetitive behaviors. VISION We envision a world where: Body-focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) are diagnosed quickly. BFRBs are not a source of shame. Knowledgeable treatment is available to all people with these disorders. Treatments are more effective and eventually cures are found. Information and emotional support are available to people of all ages and their families. VALUES Founded in 1991, TLC provides education, outreach, and support of research into the cause and treatment of BFRB disorders. In choosing how to allocate our limited resources, we seek projects that will have large ripple effects, both at the personal and public level, and that will enable larger scale work to be done. We are committed to a culture of humanity, consensus, and personal connection, while achieving the growth necessary to achieve our mission.
