Group Services

Groups enable those with epilepsy and/or their families to share common experiences and exchange information. Parents find strength and guidance by meeting together and discussing their mutual concerns. The groups for people who have seizure disorders help participants to cope with the emotional and social problems associated with epilepsy.  The Professional Support Group supports adults who have faced the challenges of living and working with epilepsy.
