Epilepsy Foundation New England is an independent affiliate of Epilepsy Foundation of America, whose mission is to lead the fight to overcome the challenges of living with epilepsy and to accelerate therapies to stop seizures, find cures, and save lives.
Epilepsy Foundation New England will have 56 AmeriCorps members who will serve as Epilepsy Resource Room Coordinators (i.e., providing Community Health Worker services) in 16 hospitals and health care institutions in CT, MA, ME, NH, RI, and VT. At the end of the first program year, the AmeriCorps members will be responsible for increasing the health knowledge of 4,889 and improving the health of 742 people. In addition, the AmeriCorps members will leverage 150 volunteers who will be engaged in supporting health education events, support groups, and community recreation for people living with disabilities. After their year of service, 30 AmeriCorps members will pursue future engagement in the public health sector.
