Hope for HH has formed strategic partnerships with leaders in epilepsy including government agencies, professional societies, and disease-based advocacy organizations.

Through these partnerships, Hope for HH seeks to ensure our patients have access to cutting edge information and support, to educate health professionals about HH and to ensure expeditious and correct diagnosis. We also hope to encourage young researchers to commit themselves to the study of HH and finally, to secure a place for HH treatment in national health policy discussions and funding decisions.
