Back to School: Are you seizure prepared?

Are you Seizure Prepared for the new school year? We have TWO webinars to help you get ready. Our Back to School webinar is geared to families with kids in grammar and high school. Our Off to College webinar is targeted for families facing the transition from childhood to adulthood.

Back to School Seizure Preparedness Tools and Resources  

Review our Checklist and make sure you are taking the right steps to be Seizure Prepared this school year. 

Special Education Advocacy

Is your child getting all of the support they need at school? We can help you understand the rights of children with epilepsy in school and assist with special education services like Seizure Action Plans, 504 Plans and Individualized Education Plans. Several of our member organizations provide customized support for families who need it.
