Epilepsy Foundation Iowa

We are looking forward to the Johnson County Sheriff's Office (JCSO) attendance at our Iowa Walk for Epilepsy - Iowa City on 6/6! Detective Sergeant Schuerer, Crisis Response Canine Rudy, and Public Safety & Justice Public Information Officer Silver plan to be in attendance. Stop by to see them about the JCSO Emergency Responder Sticker Program. This is a completely free service that’s offered to every Johnson County resident. These stickers can be placed on your car window or home window to let our deputies, firefighters, and EMS crews know that an occupant inside has Epilepsy or a Seizure Disorder and may not respond to verbal commands in a typical way.
