How We Have Helped 

Clinics-If you have been diagnosed with epilepsy or a seizure disorder and do not have health insurance, we can help! The Epilepsy Foundation Texas offers specialized diagnostic testing and prescription assistance at our eight epilepsy clinics throughout Texas. We may be able to see you even if you have insurance.

Camp-Epilepsy is disruptive for children and teens. Often, it makes it difficult to just be a kid. But having epilepsy doesn’t mean you can’t have the summer of a lifetime! That is why we go crazy for our three epilepsy camps for children and teens ages 8-19: Camp Spike’n’Wave®Camp Neuron®, and Camp Kaleidoscope®! Parents, all camps are fully staffed with trained counselors and medical professionals. Since all campers have epilepsy, experiencing a seizure doesn’t make your child any different. Camp activities are also accessible to various needs. So, why not join us next summer? Come swim, climb, play, and make memories with new friends at our epilepsy camps!

Education-We believe that we can end epilepsy in our lifetime. This starts with education. We want to help people with epilepsy to understand themselves and their conditions. We also want our communities to understand their needs. Mostly, we want to keep people with epilepsy safe in their daily lives.

Support Groups- Whether you live with epilepsy or someone you know does, there are people who understand. Shared experiences can be powerful in overcoming epilepsy. Additionally, epilepsy support groups can raise one’s spirit and overall health. Community is essential to healing. Welcome to our community.
