Established in 1977, Epilepsy Alliance Louisiana is dedicated to supporting those impacted by epilepsy in local communities by confronting the spectrum of challenges created by seizures. The organization continues to be an information and referral agency with a “hands on” approach. It is the only agency of its type in the state to exclusively provide outreach, education and advocacy to individuals with epilepsy.
