Today, someone in our community found out they have epilepsy and their life just turned upside down. They’ve lost their driver’s licenses. They don’t know what this means for their job, their relationships, their hobbies, and all the things that bring them joy.

Epilepsy Ottawa is dedicated to creating a community where people affected by epilepsy are empowered and supported to live life to the fullest, free of stigma and barriers.
