Step 1
What to say?
Subject: Support for Epilepsy LegislationDear [Representative’s Name],I am writing to urge you to support legislation that promotes a more inclusive and supportive environment for individuals with epilepsy. Millions of people live with this condition, yet outdated policies often create unnecessary barriers in education, employment, and public spaces.
By advocating for the Seizure Safe School Act we can ensure better protections, access to necessary accommodations, and greater awareness. Simple changes—such as seizure-safe school policies, can make a significant difference in the lives of students living with epilepsy.
As you may know, 22 states have already passed the Seizure Safe School Act, which is helping protect children with epilepsy in schools. We need to extend similar protections here in Kansas to ensure our children are safe and supported. Please take action to support inclusive policies that protect and empower individuals with epilepsy.
I appreciate your time and commitment to this important issue, and I look forward to your response.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
