MENTORING
Get connected to someone in a similar situation – whether you are a person with epilepsy or a parent of a child with epilepsy. If you are looking for support, or are interested in providing support to someone else, contact us. You can access here the Mentoring Reference Document to get a sense of our program.
Support Groups
Our Adult Support Group is currently on hiatus. We hope to offer an adult support group in the near future. Parent support is on an individual basis. Please contact us if you are interested in setting up an adult support group.

Contact us to meet with a staff person for assistance in completing AISH applications, housing subsidy applications, dealing with Human Rights issues and information on other social assistance needs.
