In Your Language¶
The most important document for a student with epilepsy, the seizure action plan, is available in several languages from established health organizations. We link those versions here rather than translating medical information ourselves.
Note
EDAN's own pages are in English for now. For the documents that matter most (the seizure action plan and the state toolkit), we point you to versions published by the Epilepsy Foundation of Minnesota and to samples the Minnesota Department of Health links from its toolkit. In an emergency, call 911.
