Collaboration is in our DNA and that's why we are so pleased to be partnering with more than 75 Awareness Partners this week to recognize Seizure Action Plan Awareness Week. Epilepsy Alliance America is proud to be the managing organization of the Seizure Action Plan Coalition.
A Seizure Action Plan helps you respond quickly and confidently in critical moments. Be prepared. Make your plan today.
Everyone has a role to play. Health care providers make sure patients have plans that are up to date. Caregivers make sure to put into action the plans of those they love. And, anyone can take Seizure Recognition and Response training so that they are prepared if someone has a seizure.
A seizure action plan is not a piece of paper - it is peace of mind!

Seizure Recognition and Response Training
1 in 10 people will experience a seizure in their lifetime. Just like we learn Basic First Aid, CPR and the choking rescue technique to handle medical emergencies, knowing how to recognize and respond to seizures can be lifesaving. It's knowledge that empowers you to act when it matters most.
Everyone has a story and there is power in sharing them.Thank you to our families for sharing the patient voice and their experience on the importance of establishing an individualized SAP for seizure emergencies.
International Epilepsy Day, a joint initiative created by the International Bureau for Epilepsy (IBE) and the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE), is a global event celebrated annually on the 2nd Monday of February, to promote awareness of epilepsy around the world.
Seizure Action Plan Awareness Week always kicks off on International Epilepsy Day.
