The Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Chicago is a not-for-profit that serves 44 counties in the Chicagoland area, providing case management, advocacy, education, outreach and signature programs to people with epilepsy, their families, and communities. We are dedicated to supporting the 130,000 people living with epilepsy in our service area, as well as educating the general public about the disorder. Epilepsy is far more common than people think, yet it is often the least understood. The mission of the Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Chicago is to lead the fight to overcome the challenges of living with epilepsy and to accelerate therapies to stop seizures, find cures, and save lives.
