To support independence, quality of life and community participation for those with and affected by epilepsy.

The Epilepsy Association was founded in 1955 by W.D. Taylor, and is Canada's oldest incorporated epilepsy organization. 2005 marked our 50th year of providing services in Calgary and the surrounding area. Volunteers have formed the heart and soul of our organization from its earliest days. The Epilepsy Association of Calgary is a local, charitable, social services agency and is governed by a voluntary board of directors. Services are implemented by professional staff. We have an office in Red Deer, Alberta, which was opened in 2000 to address a lack of locally accessible services available to Central Albertans.
