Epilepsy Foundation Arizona
Over 77,000 People in Arizona are Living with Epilepsy
The Epilepsy Foundation Arizona provides programs and services that support people and families impacted by epilepsy. With the strength of a national organization and network of epilepsy experts, EFAZ provides national scope and local impact.
From ground breaking research to SUDEP support, local educational programs and a 24/7 Helpline, Epilepsy Foundation Arizona is here to serve you. The work we do at Epilepsy Foundation Arizona is to ensure that no one faces epilepsy alone.
We are leading the fight to improve the lives of people affected by epilepsy through education, advocacy, research, and connection in Arizona. We are doing so 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.
