The mission of the Epilepsy Foundation of Colorado (EFCO) is to prevent, control and cure epilepsy and to ensure people with seizure disorders are able to participate in all life experiences. Our goals are to improve the quality of life for people with epilepsy, eliminate the stigma associated with the disorder through awareness and education and prevent the onset of epilepsy.
EFCO was incorporated as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in 1964. It was founded by a group of individuals who wanted to provide resources for people with epilepsy and their families. Today, the foundation serves 43,000+ people with epilepsy and their families in the state of Colorado. Full-time staff, a board of directors, politicians, business men and women, community leaders, and countless volunteers are all involved with the foundation's activities.
