Education is key, and we offer a variety of programs, designed to help the general public understand what epilepsy is and is not; how to recognize the characteristics of seizure activity; how to respond to and assist a person who is experiencing a seizure by giving appropriate first aid; and the impact seizures have on a person academically, socially and emotionally.
Operating model

- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
