About Us

Hi, my name is Jenifer.

After my son started suffering seizures in 2022, I was inspired to start a blog and share his journey to diagnosis.

It was through the connections on that initial journey that brought reprieve for me when it was needed most. Since then, I’ve had the honor of meeting others who are living with epilepsy and together we have been focused on building awareness in both our local and state communities. I have shared my family’s experience with legislators as well as on-air with the local radio stations. We have been in virtual meetups with parents all across the globe.

With the launch of Equilibrium Epilepsy Group, we’ve brought all the best parts about living in Central Minnesota to our programs; fishing clinics with Grandpas, music camp with karaoke fun sing-alongs, picnics and exploration of the State Parks, snowman building competitions and my favorite, walking the Paul Bunyan trail!

The best part? Programs are free to register for and have provided by the generous support of donors.

Equilibrium Epilepsy Group - Mission Statement

Connecting Our Community

We understand the importance of building a strong, supportive community for individuals and families impacted by epilepsy. Through our efforts, we aim to create a network where individuals can connect with others facing similar challenges. By fostering these connections, we provide a platform for sharing experiences, offering mutual support, and combating feelings of isolation or helplessness.

Addressing Issues Surrounding Seizure Disorders

In addition to disseminating information, we actively address the broader issues surrounding seizure disorders. We advocate for increased public awareness, improved access to care, and reduced stigma associated with epilepsy. By working to break down barriers and challenge misconceptions, we strive to create a more understanding and inclusive society for those living with epilepsy.

Resourceful, Impactful Information

Access to information and resources is crucial for effectively managing epilepsy. Our group is dedicated to providing comprehensive and up-to-date information about treatment options, support services, and educational opportunities. By arming our community members with knowledge, we support them to make informed decisions and take control of their health.

Empowering Our Community

At Equilibrium Epilepsy Group, our mission is clear: to empower our community members affected by epilepsy. We believe in the power of connection and information to drive positive change and improve the lives of those living with seizure disorders.

“Ultimately, Equilibrium Epilepsy Group is committed to serving as a catalyst for positive change within our community. Through connection, information, and advocacy, we aim to empower individuals affected by epilepsy, providing them with impactful resources they need to thrive.”
