November is National Epilepsy Awareness Month and JoshProvides Epilepsy Assistance Foundation held the 5th Annual Chase Away Epilepsy Walk at GT Bray Park on November 2nd. With 140 participants, including families with seizure response dogs, the walk raised more than $20,000 to support children and families who are living with epilepsy and other seizure disorders. “Our families are warriors who refuse to allow their diagnosis define who they are,” noted Andria Bilan, CEO. JoshProvides offers a semi-monthly Epilepsy Support Group to keep families connected to the community and offers assistance to children and families with seizure alert devices, medical diagnostic testing, transportation to Epilepsy Monitoring Units, and seizure response training of service dogs. www.JoshProvides.org
