Hello CURE Epilepsy Community,
I am writing with some exciting organizational updates.
Over the past year, CURE Epilepsy has undertaken a strategic planning process to analyze our values, our priorities, and our research portfolio. This process has laid the foundation for us to build new initiatives and develop a grant-making strategy that will have the greatest impact going forward.
Conversations with this community as part of our process have led us to refine our mission. Our new mission is to fund breakthrough research that will transform the lives of people living with epilepsy as we lead the search for a cure. Our fundamental work and vision remain the same, but we’ve evolved our language to better reflect who we are and the impact that we aim to have on people’s day-to-day lives as we march together toward a cure.
Additionally, we have been hard at work on a new and improved website with a more modern look and feel and educational information that is easier to find and search. Check out CUREepilepsy.org and let us know what you think!
We are confident that our continued leadership will spur scientific advancements and breakthroughs in understanding how and why epilepsy occurs so that we can target and develop cures. Thank you for joining us on this journey—only together will we find a cure for epilepsy.
Best,
Beth Lewin Dean, CEO
