Hope for KCNT1 Epilepsy Families

KCNT1: Turning Awareness into Action

Powered by Families. Driven by Urgency. Backed by Science.

We support families, researchers, clinicians and partners working toward a better future for those affected by KCNT1-related disorders.

Whether you’re a parent navigating the unknown, a clinician seeking better data, or a supporter inspired to help—this is your place. Together, we bring clarity, community, and a commitment to treatments that can’t wait.

Why this matters

KCNT1 helps regulate how brain cells communicate. Variants in this gene can cause a range of symptoms—from difficult-to-treat seizures to milder challenges—and every person’s path is different. We were founded by parents and built by community to bring answers, support, and faster progress. If your results mention KCNT1, we’re here for you.
