Epilepsy is a major health problem in our nation. More than 3 million Americans have epilepsy, with 59,000 of them living in Arizona; yet it remains one of our most misunderstood and unknown health issues. Annually about 200,000 new cases affecting people of all ages are diagnosed, resulting from head injury, stroke, prenatal illness, a variety of illnesses/infections, and many other causes; however in over 70% of cases the exact cause is unknown. About half of people with epilepsy have continuing seizures even with treatment. Many face problems in educational attainment, employment, transportation, and social interactions.

Since 1971, the Epilepsy Foundation of Arizona has been your local affiliate providing services to those individuals and their families affected by epilepsy in Arizona. We are dedicated to ensuring that people with seizures are able to participate in all life experiences and are working to prevent, control and cure epilepsy through services, education, advocacy and research.

The Epilepsy Foundation of Arizona is a nonprofit 501 (c) 3 organization and is funded primarily through individual donations from the general public, and receives restricted grant support from foundations and private industry.
