| (b) | invite you to participate in a special training or seminar so you can become a better self-advocate | |
| (c) | provide epilepsy training in your school or workplace in order to promote greater understanding and accommodation | |
| (d) | refer you to an experienced peer-mentor who can accompany or advise you, and/or | |
| (e) | refer you to a community, professional or legal organization that specializes in legal advocacy and in individual (civil) or disability rights. |
The overall purpose is to help ensure your rights and optimize your opportunities in all walks of life.
