“I am honored to be speaking about current federal and state cannabis legislation, how it affects epilepsy patients and their caregivers, and what this population can do to help move this legislation forward.” - Beth Collins

Teens Speak Up! and the Public Policy Institute is the Epilepsy Foundation's centerpiece advocacy initiative. Every year the Foundation brings together over 150 advocates, including Epilepsy Foundation affiliate staff, parents, teens, doctors, and volunteers from across the nation. Through this initiative, they are able to strengthen their advocacy network and share updates on the state of epilepsy research & funding, as well as give our families an opportunity to speak with Congress and share their stories of living with epilepsy.
