National Epilepsy Walk

This event is more than just a walk - it’s an opportunity to come together as a community with families, friends, and advocates in the heart of our nation’s capital. Whether you're directly impacted by epilepsy or simply want to show your support, your participation makes a difference. Together, we can create a world where everyone impacted by epilepsy can thrive. Lace up your shoes, bring your purple, and let’s make strides toward change!

There is no fee to register, however when you raise $100 or more you'll earn this year's official National Epilepsy Walk swag.
