Epilepsy Education Conference: Join us on July 29, 2023

The Epilepsy Foundation of San Diego County hosts a day of Wellness and Thriving at the Academy of Our Lady of Peace

Register today to join us at the 2023 Epilepsy Education Conference, which takes place on Saturday, July 29, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Academy of Our Lady of Peace in San Diego.

Gathering together under the theme of Wellness and Thriving, experts speaking at this year’s conference will share new research, emerging technologies and treatment options, medicine and therapies to manage seizures, as well as practical solutions for anyone affected by epilepsy.

“It was very interesting to learn of all of the advances,” shared a past conference attendee who was originally diagnosed with epilepsy before the advent of MRIs. “It was a well planned conference covering important topics and allowing questions and with good, interesting speakers.”

As in recent years, everyone who registers for the conference will also gain access to a library of video presentations by San Diego’s top epilepsy professionals and physicians. 

“I always learn new things and in fact took screenshots of several of the wearable devices in case they might be advantageous for my daughter,” shared a past registrant who took advantage of the conference’s library of video presentations. 

Early bird registration is $15 through June 30, $20 beginning July 1, and $25 at the door. Clients, parents and caregivers, medical professionals, teachers, school personnel, employers, and advocates of all ages are welcome to attend. We look forward to seeing you!

Volunteer. The success of our events is made possible because of our amazing volunteers! Help is needed in a variety of event operations, including set-up, registration and guest check-in, breakdown and more. Please sign up today to volunteer on Saturday, July 29.

Support our programs. Our ability to provide evidence-based resources, programs and events that help individuals and families in San Diego impacted by epilepsy is made possible through the generosity of our community.
