The Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Southern Illinois is starting a Youth Council. We are looking for youth, ages 16-24, who possess good leadership and teamwork skills, are motivated to make a difference in their communities, and can communicate messages effectively. Members of the Youth Council will be dedicated to developing and providing input on new programs, products, and events geared towards youth with epilepsy, their peers, and the community surrounding them.
The Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Southern Illinois Youth Council is:
A great opportunity for YOU to make a difference in the lives of youth both with and without epilepsy.
A chance to learn more about epilepsy and what others are doing in your community and around the country to reach out to youth and adults about epilepsy.
A way to reach out in a leadership role to key political leaders about the importance of epilepsy and make positive changes for people with epilepsy through our government.
If you are interested in applying to become a member of the Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Southern Illinois Youth Council, please contact Louis Beckley, Epilepsy Services Coordinator, at efsi@mvn.net or by phone at (618) 244-6680.
