Library hosts epilepsy open house Monday

Epilepsy doesn’t discriminate. The seizure disorder affects children and adults, men and women, and people of all races, religions, ethnic backgrounds and social classes.

However, as with most challenges that life throws at us, it is easier to handle with help and support from people who understand the disorder or who are facing the same challenges.

The Epilepsy Foundation is holding a free educational open house 5-7 p.m. Monday, March 4 for professionals, family members and individuals impacted by epilepsy at the Cloquet Public Library. Seizure recognition and response training will be provided at 6 p.m., along with light refreshments and lots of resources. Questions? Contact Lisa Peterson at [email protected] or call the Cloquet Public Library at 218-879-1531.
