Epilepsy Foundation Alabama
Over 54,000 People in Alabama are Living with Epilepsy
Founded in 1971, the Epilepsy Foundation Alabama provides programs and services that support people and families impacted by epilepsy. With the strength of a national organization and network of epilepsy experts, EFAL provides national scope and local impact.
From ground breaking research to SUDEP support, local educational programs and a 24/7 Helpline, Epilepsy Foundation Alabama is here to serve you.
We are leading the fight to END EPILEPSY® in Alabama by supporting and mobilizing the epilepsy community through educational activities, direct services, advocacy, as well as research to accelerate therapies to stop seizures, find cures, and save lives. The Foundation also seeks to educate the general public to better understand epilepsy and seizure disorders, including knowing proper seizure first aid.
