Dravet Syndrome Awareness Month takes place each June in the U.S.
By raising awareness of Dravet syndrome, our community can increase knowledge in the general public; improve early diagnosis; assure that patient families have the information they need to manage their loved one’s care; and reduce the feelings of isolation faced by patients and their families. This year’s theme is: Join the Fight!
Your support and hard work has been instrumental in the progress made for our patient community in the last decade. Now more than ever, we need your help! Please commit to Join the Fight in one or more ways this June. #fightdravet

Join us on June 24-26, 2021!
Research and new treatments continue to move forward in the field of Dravet syndrome. With the postponement of our 2020 event due to the pandemic, we wanted to offer a virtual learning opportunity to bridge the gap until we can meet again in person next year at Cook Children’s Medical Center.
The live presentations at this year’s event will center on new treatments and research. We will also offer an on-demand series of videos on a variety of topics relating to caregiver concerns. Live presentations will be recorded, and those along with our on-demand videos will be available to registered participants through September 30, 2021.
