Our strength is our community, our commitment to collaboration, and our shared belief that we can improve the lives of those impacted by epilepsy – by working together. We are people living with epilepsy, caregiver, advocates and policy makers. Together, we will win a National Plan for all people affected by epilepsy –because together we are inevitable.
