Support Groups
Connecting with each other is an important part to your wellbeing. Learning and engaging with people who can understand and empathize with how you are feeling can help us shape strategies for improving our health in many ways.
Our support group is the place to share your epilepsy journey, the challenges and the accomplishments. We also invite guest speakers to share their expertise in a variety of topics applicable to the epilepsy community.
