Parents Against Childhood Epilepsy, Inc. is a 501(c)3 not for profit corporation formed in 1996 to battle this devastating and far-reaching disease. It was founded by a group of parents in response to their experiences in caring for the medical, physical, social, educational, developmental and emotional needs of their children who suffer from epilepsy and severe seizure disorders. Our fundraising efforts support advances in medical research of epilepsy, as well as provide information and support to many families with similar needs.
