The fourth annual National Walk for Epilepsy will be held in Washington, D.C. on the National Mall, Saturday, March 27, 2010.
Epilepsy is the third most-common neurological condition after alzheimer's disease and stroke and affects more than three million Americans, but few people know that it can affect anyone, anywhere at any time. The Epilepsy Foundation, a national voluntary health organization established in 1968, works to ensure that people with seizures are able to participate in all life experiences; to improve how people with epilepsy are perceived, accepted and valued in society; and to promote research for a cure.
