7 years strong - 8 epilepsy organizations joined together to form Epilepsy Alliance America

Celebrating 7 Years of Collaborations

Today, July 18, 2025, marks our seven-year anniversary. Since 2018, our member organizations have worked together providing hope and possibilities for individuals and families affected by epilepsy.
