Mission: To Make Texas Schools Safer
What is Sam's Law?
Sam's Law (HB 684), was signed into law on June 11, 2019 with
Governor Greg Abbott, two GCEA Representatives and many
Texas Epilepsy Advocates.
The law requires all Texas public school personnel whose duties include regular contact with students to be trained in seizure recognition and seizure first aid.
The training is FREE.
People who interact with children with epilepsy on a daily basis should be trained to care for them if they have a seizure.
Sam's Law ensures that Texas public schools are well-equipped with the tools necessary to provide a safe and enriching environment.
Dec. 2019, Texas Education Agency (TEA) approved the online courses:
