A MESSAGE ...

A message from our Executive Director

PATRICIA GIBSON

Having been director for more than two decades, I’ve had the privilege to observe the growth of the Epilepsy Alliance North Carolina first hand. Believe me, we’ve come a long way! From our humble beginnings when our founder, Ms. Bowen, planted the seeds of the Alliance, to the present with fundraisers every month of the year, an Endowment Fund for Medication, multiple support groups, countless awareness and educational speaking events, summer basketball camps, and patient medication assistance, I remain encouraged and hopeful that people in North Carolina living with epilepsy will have the support they need and deserve.

​

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to our website. It is our hope that you will find the information and encouragement you seek. Please join us by becoming a member of EANC. We welcome you with

an open heart and will be happy to speak with you,

if you desire.

Our Mission

Providing support to all 100 counties of North Carolina, the Epilepsy Alliance North Carolina exists to help anyone who battles the effects of epilepsy. From assisting with payment for medications to connecting people to doctors across the state, the alliance fields 8,000 to 10,000 phone calls each year, and is here to support families as a locally based resource with a long, proud history of service in North Carolina.

​​Epilepsy Alliance NC is dedicated to supporting those impacted by epilepsy in local communities by confronting the spectrum of challenges created by seizures. Our efforts to accomplish this lofty goal include education, advocacy, support and research that may accelerate ideas into therapies.
