About Us
ONE VISION.
ONE VOICE.
ONE FUTURE.
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.
