    About Us

    South Carolina Advocates For Epilepsy is a statewide nonprofit dedicated to supporting individuals living with epilepsy, their caregivers, and the communities around them. Our mission is to Advocate, Educate, and Inspire so that every person impacted by epilepsy has the opportunity to live fully and thrive.

    We believe in the power of community, compassion, and knowledge. Through advocacy, we work to ensure that the voices of people with epilepsy are heard, respected, and represented. Through education, we provide essential resources, training, and awareness to schools, healthcare providers, employers, and the general public, helping to create safer and more inclusive environments. Through inspiration, we empower people with epilepsy and their families by building connections, sharing stories, and fostering hope.

    S.A.F.E. proudly serves people with epilepsy of all ages, their caregivers, families, and the broader community across South Carolina. Whether it’s through support groups, awareness campaigns, educational events, or advocacy initiatives, we are committed to walking alongside those on the epilepsy journey every step of the way.

    At the heart of everything we do is the belief that no one should face epilepsy alone—and together, we can make South Carolina a safer, more understanding, and more supportive place for all.
