Brief Summary: Youth with epilepsy YWE are significantly more likely than their peers without epilepsy to experience isolation interpersonal victimization and low relationship satisfaction This is a serious health concern Poor social support real or perceived is consistently correlated to worsened outcomes in every domain of health-related quality of life As YWE are two to five times more likely than their peers without epilepsy to develop a mental health condition poor social support is likely a bidirectional risk factor

Currently there are no best practices or recommendations for clinicians or other youth-serving professionals to reference when it comes to improving the perceived social support of YWE specifically

The research team has drawn from multiple fields of scientific knowledge to develop a novel intervention that aims to provide YWE with knowledge skills connections and positive emotional support that can help them to bolster their support system at every level of the social ecological model SEM The proposed study is a pilot of this intervention to test its acceptability and appropriateness according to YWE participants ages 12 to 26 The interventions impact on participants social-emotional learning skills and the feasibility of expanding the study protocol for use in a large multisite randomized control trial will also be explored

The goal of this research study is to help evaluate a new program for young people diagnosed with epilepsy that will build up young peoples social opportunities interpersonal skills and sources of emotional support The investigators want to research the impact of this program From this study the investigators hope to learn what the program does well and in what ways it could be improved from the perspective of YWE
