School supplies? ✔️
New backpack? ✔️
Teachers who know what to do if a student has a seizure? That matters, too.

As students head back to the classroom, we're working with schools across Minnesota to help staff feel confident recognizing and responding to seizures. Every student deserves to feel safe, supported, and included.

Learn more about our Seizure Smart Schools program in our newest blog post:

For many students and families, the return to school brings questions about whether the right supports will be in place to help them succeed. Read our newest blog post by Amy Haugen to learn how EFMN partners with families and schools year-round to ensure no student has to navigate epilepsy alone.
