DeKALB – The Kishwaukee Family YMCA and Epilepsy Foundation have partnered to help children who suffer from seizures understand their condition and minimize the effects.

The DeKalb Office of the Epilepsy Foundation will present a workshop titled "Seize Control: Take Charge of Your Life" on Sunday for families with children who suffer from epilepsy and experience seizures. The presentations will be from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Kishwaukee Family YMCA, 2500 W. Bethay Road, DeKalb.

Neurologists and experts will discuss how to minimize the effects of seizures; parents also will be able to ask questions and network with others who face the same challenges.
