Living with epilepsy can be a challenge, but you are not alone. The Living with Epilepsy Workshop Series is intended to educate, inspire, and improve the lives for all those living with epilepsy by connecting them with medical experts and others living with epilepsy. Whether you are newly diagnosed, have lived with epilepsy all your life, or caring for someone living with epilepsy, there is something for everyone.
