The mission of the Epilepsy Foundation is to improve the lives of people affected by epilepsy through education, advocacy, research, and connection.

The Epilepsy Foundation Central & South Texas (EFCST) was founded in 1993 to improve the quality of life of nearly 160,000 persons with epilepsy residing in 79 Central and South Texas counties. We strive to put an end to the myths and misunderstandings about epilepsy while helping individuals with epilepsy live a full and meaningful life.
