This week, HPR All Things Considered Host Dave Lawrence welcomes the Epilepsy Foundation of Hawaii back to Helping Hand. November is Epilepsy Awareness Month, and their annual conference is tomorrow at Queen’s Conference Center from 8:30 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. with Presentation topics including Epilepsy 101 & Current Issues, Inspiring Stories, Medical Insurance & Public Benefits, It Takes a Village: Community Resources and a Talk Story Panel Discussion: Medical Cannabis & Epilepsy. We’re welcoming back to Helping Hand our guest Naomi Manuel, Executive Director of Epilepsy Foundation of Hawai‘i.

Helping Hand is a weekly feature airing statewide on HPR1 stations each week and then appearing online here, where our Helping Hand segments are archived.
