Sometimes history repeating itself, or practically, is a good thing.  Last year, I was a keynote speaker at about this time, for the National Walk to END EPILEPSY - DC benefiting the Epilepsy Foundation.  This June, I am going to be the only speaker at the National Walk to END EPILEPSY - PHILADELPHIA benefiting the  Epilepsy Foundation Eastern Pennsylvania. #epilepsyawareness #shareyourstory #publicspeaking #educate #overcomechallenges

💜💜Spotlight on Eveian: A Creative and Resilient Epilepsy Warrior As we continue our Epilepsy Awareness Month spotlights, we’re honored to feature Eveian, a talented member of our support group who was diagnosed with epilepsy in adulthood. Eveian has been navigating the challenges of epilepsy in a truly creative and expressive way—through literature and art. She recently shared her incredible Zine with us, capturing what Epilepsy Awareness Month means to her. In her own words: "Epilepsy Awareness Month to me means: EMPATHY – Empathize, not stigmatize EMpowerment – The freedom to express EQuity – Accommodation of needs Encouragement – To never give up EDUCATION – For everyone to keep learning about epilepsy." Eveian's artistry and words remind us of the power of creativity in advocacy and self-expression. Let’s celebrate her message and commitment to spreading awareness, empathy, and education. #EpilepsyAwarenessMonth #CreativeAdvocate #EpilepsyWarrior #Empathy #Empowerment #Education #EpilepsyReach

Dear partners, colleagues, early childhood providers, advocates, and followers: We'd be thrilled if you would take a few minutes to read our latest published article, outlining key priorities for children prenatal to five, and their families in Oregon. As you already know (and have heard us say many times!), early childhood is a critical period for brain development, which is why it's SO important for Oregon leaders to prioritize babies and young children in public policy. See what we're urging Oregon leaders to do: https://lnkd.in/gN2y6dq9

Every epilepsy journey is unique, but the impact of support remains constant. For Andrew and his family, the Epilepsy Foundation of Michigan has been a lifeline, connecting them with doctors and essential care.

His bravery is a testament to the resilience of those living with epilepsy. In this season of giving, your support can be the light that guides someone like Andrew. 💜 Discover how you can make a life-changing impact: https://lnkd.in/gnTn_ZXD

💜 Quarriers launches online Epilepsy Self Management Toolkit. 💜 For the past year we have been working with people with epilepsy, their families and the people who support them to co-design a free, online, Epilepsy Self Management Toolkit.  This resource contains guidance and advice from real people with epilepsy on how to live life to the fullest. The Toolkit was developed by the William Quarrier Scottish Epilepsy Centre (WQSEC), supported by the Thistle Foundation and funded by the Health and Social Care Alliance. @TheALLIANCE. 👏 Thank you to everyone who has been involved in the project. 💜 View the toolkit here: https://lnkd.in/ebikXMFs #epilepsy #livingwithepilepsy #epilepsysupport #epilepsyhelp #livewithepilepsy
