Epilepsy Foundation of Colorado & Wyoming

We are the leader in connecting, educating, and empowering to improve the lives of everyone affected by epilepsy.

 

We connect people to healthcare providers, support networks, and a listening ear, and we educate schools, employers, and the community at large to reduce stigma and raise awareness. We empower people affected by epilepsy with knowledge, resources, and advocacy to live their best lives.

 

For more than 50 years, we have remained committed to our mission, and we will not rest until we achieve a world free from seizures.
