About Us

SACEC is comprised of students, researchers, clinicians and community members whose primary objective is to promote epilepsy awareness. We aim to establish a communication network that allows for the expansion of one's knowledge base of the problems associated with epilepsy, facilitating the development of optimal and effective education and treatment solutions.

SACEC and Epilepsy Ontario are currently developing a strategy for a comprehensive epilepsy care program in Ontario. These programs are sucessfully established in the United States and improves the quality of life for individuals living with epilepsy. We invite you to join us in our efforts to establish this program.
