We are thrilled to announce that the Epilepsy Resource Centre has received a three-year grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation to fund an educational program called, Thinking About Epilepsy. This program will be delivered to Grade 5 students throughout the Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington and Leeds & Grenville regions.

The Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) is Canada’s leading grant-making foundation and is an agency of the Government of Ontario. Its mission is to build healthy and vibrant communities throughout Ontario by investing in community-based initiatives. This investment in our community and the Thinking About Epilepsy program, will help us to remove barriers for youth with epilepsy, create safer and more inclusive schools that support students with epilepsy, and keep them engaged in learning and life.

Many thanks to the Government of Ontario and the Ontario Trillium Foundation for funding this exciting project.
