Children & Youth Groups

Children’s Community Club

EYR hosts various social events throughout the year to encourage children living with

epilepsy and their siblings, ages 4 through 12, to embrace social interaction,

involvement and empowerment with their local agency and other kids living with

epilepsy across York Region. Children’s social events are typically geared around

holidays throughout the year, where the event will fall near the date of the holiday,

embrace the holiday traditions and raise excitement for the kids around both the

holiday and event! Events around holidays typically include Valentine’s Day, March

Awareness and Purple Day on March 26th, Easter, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Back to

School, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Winter Holiday’s.


Please know we are open to your family’s participation at your own preference and sign

up for each event is completed separately. At EYR we understand not all families

celebrate certain westernized holiday’s, may not be able to commit their attendance for

every event and may have to cancel or sign up on short notice around their child’s

medical needs. Each event will be structured differently depending on the holiday in

terms of duration, date and time of scheduling and resources involved, however please

note that EYR does its best in creating these events to be most suitable for the majority

of family’s participation. These events involve no cost to the family to participate and all

items or resources will be provided through the agency. For the possibility of a few

event exceptions, there may be a request sent to parents prior to the event if specific at

home prep for involvement in the event is needed or arrangement for at home drop-offs of event specific items provided and delivered from the agency.


Each event announcements will be sent through email approximately a month in

advance with the event description, information needed, and a final rsvp date in place

asking for a confirmation of number of children attending. This is so as an agency we

can ensure all prep, materials and participants are ready and confirmed in advance and

offers enough time for parents to make any at home necessary adjustments. The day

following the rsvp deadline, those who confirmed their attendance will be contacted

with any instructions, information and resources needed along with the zoom link to

participate in the event. EYR does not have a maximum or minimum number of

attendees for each event, nor is there any penalty for last minute cancellation or sign

up, that being said, participation at each event can vary. We encourage children

attending to bring along their siblings or family member at home to the event and ask

parents to be close by during the event for any assistance needed at home as virtual

event delivery continues until further notice.
