There are some online support groups:

where you can talk to other people who are living with Tourettes (or have loved ones who have it) -- and talking with somebody who has experienced exactly what you are going through could be a big help in figuring out how to help your brother.
And it is SO great that you want to help him with this. You are a great sister.
