Who we are
The Dravet Italia ONLUS was born with the intent to act actively to improve the quality of life of children suffering from this severe form of epilepsy: Dravet syndrome.
​
Experienced doctors and parents come together with this goal.
​
This vital collaboration has already given rise to international experiences that have contributed to many advances in the understanding and treatment of the syndrome.
​
Our aim is to support research, so that hopes come true.
To help us, support our initiatives.
