Health Education and First Aid Training

Our educational programs teach individuals how to recognize and provide appropriate first aid for seizures. The programs dispel myths surrounding epilepsy to mitigate the fear and misunderstanding that often surrounds this condition and that may have negative social, emotional, and professional consequences for individuals with epilepsy.
