Raising Epilepsy Awareness

 

**The epilepsy awareness program has been updated. Learn how to get involved with the details below.**

Awareness is the foundation for progress. It opens doors to understanding, compassion, funding, and policy change. Your participation in raising epilepsy awareness plays a vital role in helping us further our mission and deepen our impact. By participating, whether in person or online, you’re helping us build greater understanding, reduce stigma, and expand the reach of our programs and services. This engagement opportunity isn’t just about sharing facts; it’s about starting conversations that can lead to real change. Every post, event, and conversation matters. It helps grow our community, connect more people to resources, and bring visibility to a condition that affects more than 3.4 million Americans.

The awareness toolkit is designed to support and empower you. You will find ideas on how to raise awareness and get involved with the Epilepsy Foundation. These tools will help you educate others and inspire action when you are:

  • Hosting a fundraising event
  • Sharing your story
  • Spreading the word through your social network

By raising awareness, you're helping us reach new audiences, strengthen support systems, and advocate for those who often feel unseen or unheard. You are essential to ensuring that no one feels isolated in their epilepsy journey and that every voice is heard and valued.

We encourage you to explore the toolkit, find what inspires you, and take action in the ways that feel most meaningful to you. Whether it’s starting small or going big, your involvement makes a difference and every step you take helps amplify our collective voice.

Thank you for stepping up and choosing to be part of this important effort. Together, we can build stronger connections, drive greater community impact, and continue moving toward a future where understanding replaces stigma, and support is always within reach.
