Youth Initiative

Willis-Ekbom disease (WED), also known as restless legs syndrome or RLS, doesn't only affect adults. As this neurological condition has a genetic component, it can be hereditary. Some symptoms may arise early in life. It is on behalf of the youth living with WED/RLS we dedicate this this contest and the youth initiative web page.

We are having a 2013 Youth Art Contest! The WED Foundation is pleased to announce its second Youth Initiative Art Contest, open to children age 17 and under. Entries can be a drawing or a painting and must depict Willis-Ekbom disease (restless legs syndrome). See samples and winners from previous contest by clicking here.
