    The Epilepsy Foundation of New Jersey
    Not another moment lost to Seizures



    The Epilepsy Foundation of New Jersey, an affiliate of the National Epilepsy Foundation, is a state-wide, non-profit charitable agency dedicated to helping to improve the quality of life for people affected by epilepsy and their loved ones.

    The Epilepsy Foundation of New Jersey, will ensure that people with seizures are able to participate in all life experiences; and will prevent, control and cure epilepsy through services, education, advocacy and research. They provide comprehensive support, personalized services and advocacy for individuals and their families in order to maximize their participation in society.

    Epilepsy affects one in 100 individuals and their loved ones. Unfortunately because of the stigma that is still associated with having Epilepsy, it is not often spoken about. Many do not realize that Epilepsy is more common than Cerebral Palsy, Parkinson’s disease and Multiple Sclerosis combined. Our staff is out in the community dispelling these myths and providing information through our statewide trainings and events. The website will be updated regularly with new information so be sure to check it frequently.

    The Poker Run is a rally that involves an underlying poker theme. There will be five predetermined destination points during the course of the rally. Each point consists of a short break where your team will receive a poker card for that leg of the cruise. The team with the best five card hand at the end of the event is named the winner. Prizes/Gifts will be given away to the top three hands of the day.

    Prizes we have so far:

We have been consistently getting 100+ cars at the last couple of events. Let's make sure we match that or do better this time around! You can also find frequent updates on our Facebook Page.
