November holds a special place in the hearts of those dedicated to epilepsy awareness and understanding. As we gather during this month, we are reminded of the powerful sense of community that unites us in our mission to illuminate the path to knowledge, support, and empathy for those affected by epilepsy. Our central theme is clear: “Shine Your Light on Epilepsy”: Give, Educate, Support, Share. We wholeheartedly invite you to stand alongside us, as together, we make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families navigating the complexities of epilepsy.

Throughout the entire month of November, we'll illuminate several prominent landmarks, including the Royal Caribbean Terminal and the iconic Freedom Tower in Miami, the Bank of America Plaza in Broward, and the Pensacola Museum of History, all in honor of Epilepsy Awareness Month. Should you spot these captivating sights, we invite you to capture the moment and share it with us. Tag us in your photos to help us raise epilepsy awareness and create a strong sense of community.
