About Dravet Canada

Onward through 2026 and into 2027...

Our big research project this year is to build our National Registry, making it easier for researchers to gather information, making it easier for clinical trials to find patients, and easier for us to explain exactly what we need and why.

We are also creating the "Living with Dravet in Canada Roadmap". This will help everyone living with Dravet to know what may be over the horizon, what to prepare for, where to find help, and collect regional supports and services.

And of course, in 2027, we are planning our National Event. We are still in the beginning stages of planning, stay tuned for more details.

Thank you for all you do to help!!
