February 2022

Dear Friends,

You have questions, concerns, or ideas about Dravet syndrome, and this is why we're hosting the DSF Family & Professional Conference this upcoming June. This 3-day event from June 23 - 25 unites families, caregivers, clinicians, researchers, and professionals in the pharmaceutical industry to bring together all groups committed to improving the lives of those with Dravet syndrome.

Just as DSF ensures you never have to navigate Dravet syndrome alone, we want to make it as easy as possible for families impacted by Dravet syndrome to travel to Fort Worth, Texas for the conference. Apply for our family scholarship TODAY to make sure you can attend this biennial event.

We want you to foster new relationships, gain ideas, and feel empowered with patient care. And you can gain all these things plus valuable information about advances in research at the DSF Family & Professional Conference this June. We can't wait to see you there!

Warmly,

Dravet Syndrome Foundation
