The Epilepsy Foundation South Central Wisconsin is a voluntary, nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for individuals affected by epilepsy.

Description:
A nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization, the Epilepsy Foundation South Central Wisconsin has as its mission to educate and support individuals with epilepsy and their families, to increase awareness in the general community and to facilitate prevention and management of epilepsy. This includes providing services and programs for people with epilepsy and their families; educating and increasing awareness about epilepsy; providing leadership in advocacy for epilepsy issues and collaborating with other community resources in support of the mission of the Epilepsy Foundation South Central Wisconsin.

We are able to provide these services through the generous support of grants and donations from various corporations, businesses, foundations and interested individuals.

History:
Incorporated in 1980, the Epilepsy Foundation grew out of a support network of people with epilepsy and parents of children who were dealing with seizures. Specialized services for those with epilepsy and public education programs designed for teachers, human service workers, school age children, first responders, and employers have been hallmarks of the organization.

The Madison office serves residents of 15 counties in South Central Wisconsin, from La Crosse to Sheboygan, and all of Dane County.
