Epilepsy Foundation of Minnesota

Open to Everyone Virtual Connect Group
2021-01-16 10:00 - 11:00 (America/Chicago) | MN
We invite you to come together to offer and receive support, connect with others, and spend time in honest conversation about the epilepsy journey. This group is open to anyone who has a connection to epilepsy including but not limited to: individuals living with epilepsy, caregivers and parents who have loved ones living with epilepsy, people who work with individuals diagnosed with epilepsy. For more information contact Amy Haugen, Senior Regional Manager at amy.haugen@efmn.org or 320.203.9722.

In order to ensure we can provide the best experience possible, we need a few things from you. Before registering for this group, please make sure you have the following:

A device that enables you to communicate with others – through a computer, tablet, or phone. A camera is preferred so that you can see others and they can see you, but it is not required.
Pair of headphones and a quiet space in your home. This is to ensure confidentiality and to provide you with the best experience as a member of the group.

Emergency Contact Information: Should a seizure or other medical situation arise for you during the group time, we need to have access to an emergency contact (name and phone number), and your physical location address. This information is not shared outside of EFMN staff unless they need to contact EMS services to respond to your home to provide medical care.
