Epilepsy Association

Talk to other people with epilepsy and learn ways to manage your symptoms and mental health. Join the free SMART program, led by a nurse and someone with epilepsy. Our next class starts on September 9 and meets on Wednesdays from 6-7pm. The group meets on Zoom, or you can call in on your phone.

Open to any adult with epilepsy! Most of our participants tell us their mental health improves after the 8-week program.

Email [email protected] or call 216-579-1330 to reserve your spot for free or learn more.

Register by next Monday to save your spot at the 6th Annual Epilepsy Association Golf Outing! Compete against other foursomes, pro golfers from Back Swing, and help people with epilepsy doing it!

Some great people we celebrated at yesterday's Annual Meeting! In order of their photos:
We'd like to thank Mark Holcomb for his leadership in his term as our Board President, Dr. Michael Devereaux, who is retiring from the Professional Advisory Board after over 20 years of service to the Epilepsy Association, and congratulate our 2026 Client of the Year for their personal achievements in the face of epilepsy and other life challenges.

About a third of people with epilepsy have drug resistant, also known as uncontrolled, refractory, or intractable, epilepsy. This means they have tried at least two different medications and are still having seizures.

For drug resistant cases, some people may chose an implant device or look into other treatment options that could be right for them.

We are 3 weeks away from the Annual Epilepsy Association Golf Outing! Join us at Sweetbriar Golf Course in Avon Lake for raffles, golf games, and more! Registration includes lunch and a golf cart.
