Be an Advocate

Be an Advocate

We invite everyone to participate as an advocate — for each other — in this fight. This means educating community and state and federal leaders and key decision-makers about epilepsy so they are more aware of and sensitive to the needs and concerns of families with epilepsy.

Support Care and Cure

Support Care and Cure

The Care & Cure Institute was established to fund medical fellowships for pediatric epileptologists with the sole purpose of mitigating and eliminating the catastrophic effects of epilepsy. Since 2006, we have partnered with many of the major medical centers in the Greater Los Angeles area, raising over $30 million dollars that have funded the medical training of 45 Care & Cure fellows… and counting.
