OUR VISION
Our vision is to create a barrier free community in which epilepsy is widely understood, and where persons affected by epilepsy and seizure disorders are empowered to live a life of support, dignity, and self-worth.
OUR VALUES
These serve as guidelines for our conduct and behaviour as we work towards our mission:
· Caring and empathic · Integrity and honesty

We are able to live by our mission, vision, and values through fundraising and public donation efforts – all contributions help fund our programming, education, advocacy and services which are leading us towards alleviating the stigma and myths of living with Epilepsy. Every donation makes a difference.
