FRN’s Support Services provide individuals with disabilities and families of children with disabilities to get the support they need to lead a full and happy life.
FRN’s employment and transition programs support youth and adults with intellectual, developmental, and physical disabilities through mentorship, education, and employment in order to become integrated, productive members of their communities.
FRN’s public health department aims to address the social determinants of health that impact individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, physical disabilities, and chronic conditions.
The Family Resource Network provides engaging educational opportunities for professionals, families, and individuals across New Jersey. Our programs are offered both virtually and in person and cover a wide range of topics, including epilepsy, autism, caregiving, transition planning, and IEP development.
A Seizure Action Plan exists because seizures do not wait for the right moment.
When communication is not possible, clear steps matter. A plan means fewer questions, less panic, and a safer response in a moment that counts.
Families, caregivers, and people with epilepsy share how having a plan helped during real-life emergencies. Your story could help someone else take the first step.
➡️ Learn more or create a plan at seizureactionplans.org. Please share this post.

Rescue medications can stop or shorten certain seizures, but only if others know when and how to use them. A Seizure Action Plan spells this out clearly.
