🚨NEW PWS SCHOOL RESOURCES🚨

Back-to-school means making sure the people supporting your child have the information they need to keep them safe and supported.

🆕 We’ve added NEW customizable resources to the EmpowerED Solutions website, including:

✨ Canva “All About Me” Templates
Create a personalized, easy-to-read snapshot of your child’s strengths, needs, medical considerations, and helpful support strategies through each stage of their educational journey.

🚌 Transportation Safety Alert
Important information for bus drivers, aides, and transportation staff about food security, temperature regulation, hypotonia, and other PWS-specific safety needs.

⚠️ Health & Food Safety Alert
A quick visual reminder of critical PWS food security precautions for staff. Perfect for substitute folders, emergency information, or as the cover page of an individualized health plan so essential information is immediately visible.

These resources are designed to make it easier for families to share clear, practical information with everyone who supports their child throughout the school day.

EPM301, our lead investigational compound, has received an Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) from both the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

This designation allows us to accelerate the development of treatments for conditions that often have limited or no approved options, like .

The Orphan Drug Designation helps remove some of the barriers to developing innovative therapies, ultimately bringing potential treatments — like EPM301 — to patients and families faster.

We had such an impactful and inspiring time attending the One Small Step fundraiser in Elizabethtown, KY this weekend!

In addition to proudly sponsoring the event, we were honored to stand alongside the community and the The Foundation for Prader-Willi Research as we work toward a brighter future for individuals and families impacted by PWS.

Saturday marked the 4th year of One Small Step Kentucky, and we’re so grateful to everyone who continues to make this event such a success!

HUGE shoutout to our fundraising teams, who raised nearly $7,000 for PWS research: Team Gideon, Tommy, and Lazarus! A special thank you to everyone who rallied around their efforts.
