INFANTILE SPASMS ADVOCACY AWARD
NOMINATION OPPORTUNITY
The Child Neurology Foundation (CNF) seeks nominations for the 2014 Infantile Spasms (IS) Heroes Award.
Are you a parent or caregiver caring for a
child with infantile spasms? Has your child's life been positively affected by a healthcare professional who helped diagnose or treat your child's infantile spasms?
As part of the 2014 Infantile Spasms Awareness Week (December 5-11, 2014), CNF will award one heroic healthcare professional and his/her medical institution with the "Infantile Spasms Heroes Award." The IS Heroes Award was established in 2010 by the Child Neurology Foundation (CNF) to recognize a deserving healthcare professional for making a positive difference in the life of a child with infantile spasms.
Nominees can include any healthcare professional who has made a positive difference in the life of a child with infantile spasms by embodying the heroic spirit of quality, compassionate, and efficacious care during diagnosis or treatment of IS.
All nominations must be submitted via an online form by Sunday, November 23, 2014 on the Child Neurology Foundation's IS website: http://www.infantilespasmsinfo.org/nomination_form.php
Nominations should tell us about your child and your story with infantile spasms as well as why your nominee deserves recognition as an IS Hero. What makes this person special? What did they do to help your child and your family? How is this person advancing the understanding of IS?
The winner will be recognized at an evening reception hosted by the Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance on Friday, December 5th at the American Epilepsy Society annual meeting in Seattle, WA.
