News & Notes

 
Before the feast, get your family and friends together for our 6th annual Dash for Dravet on Turkey Day! Register by November 15th to have your runner's bib and our new Turkey Trot t-shirt in hand for Turkey Day.
 
DSF worked with our Medical Advisory Board to help address the issues that families with Dravet syndrome face during the transition process: adult providers that are not familiar with the medical needs of an individual with Dravet syndrome.
Mark your calendars and join the DSF Family Network for our 5th annual Day of Dravet workshops. There is one more live session left this month. You can also watch previous sessions on-demand through November 30, 2021.
Join us in congratulating DSF Scientific Advisory Board Co-Chair, Lori Isom, PhD on being elected to the National Academy of Medicine, one of the highest honors for a clinician and scientist. 
On Saturday, October 16, 11 Dravet families joined friends and family for Steps Toward A Cure: Atlanta. This 1 mile walk, held at Blackburn Park in Brookhaven, GA raised over $8,500 and counting!
