Please join us for a special “back to school” chat as you prepare to return your child to school.
We’ll begin by sharing information about our key educational resources for children who have epilepsy, epilepsy surgery, or other neurological conditions:
- Navigating the IEP Process (course)
- PESA’s Educational Assessments Checklists (spreadsheet)
- PESA’s IEP GoalBank (spreadsheet)
- PESA’s Special Education Resource Guide (spreadsheet)
Then, we’ll have time for your IEP and 504 Plan questions.
Hosted by our Director of Patient and Family Advocacy, Audrey Vernick.
We have a mantra at the Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Alliance: Knowledge is power.
If you have to advocate for something for your child, you must understand it.
Our Power Hours are designed to help families advocate for their child’s needs after epilepsy surgery. These open meetings allow families to learn from each other. What it turns into will depend on who shows up and what questions you have. These sessions are open to parents or primary caregivers of pediatric epilepsy surgery patients or those considering surgery.
