It’s been a privilege attending the Epilepsy Foundation of America’s 2026 Public Health Institute in Tulsa, Oklahoma, representing EFMK💜

This year’s theme, Building Inclusive Communities & Collaborations to Achieve Epilepsy Equity, brought together advocates, public health professionals, healthcare providers, and community partners to share ideas and strengthen the epilepsy community.

We especially enjoyed connecting with Dr. Jonathan Williams from Washington University, a valued partner in our work here in Missouri. We’re grateful for the opportunity to learn, collaborate, and bring new ideas back to the communities we serve. 💜
