International Epilepsy Day 2023
Every year on the second Monday of February people join together for International Epilepsy Day, to celebrate and highlight the problems faced by people with epilepsy, their families, and caregivers. This year will focus on the stigma experienced by individuals with epilepsy around the world.
The stigma surround epilepsy is one of the many reasons CURE Epilepsy created our Say the Word #SayEpilepsy campaign. We can’t fund research to find a cure for, raise awareness about, or fight the stigma against epilepsy if we don’t use the word. Learn more about this campaign here.
Join CURE Epilepsy and the epilepsy community around the globe in raising funds for research and spreading epilepsy awareness on International Epilepsy Day.

65 million people worldwide are affected by epilepsy. One way to show your friends, family, and followers why finding a cure for epilepsy is so urgent is to share these images to your social media, or your own story, and use the hashtag #EpilepsyDay to add your voice to the conversation:
