At Young Adults with Epilepsy (YAWE), our mission is to foster resilience and independence in young adults with epilepsy from the Central Coast.

Through education, empowerment, and sustained support, we aim to transform lives by facilitating access to resources, promoting awareness, and creating a nurturing community that embraces diversity and inclusivity.

Our vision at Young Adults with Epilepsy (YAWE) is to revolutionize epilepsy and mental health care for young adults, promoting optimal health outcomes and quality of life.

We aspire to dismantle the stigma surrounding epilepsy, fostering a secure and open YAWE community where acceptance thrives and individuals feel safe to share their experiences and learn from others.

From free peer counseling to meet-ups, workshops and educational events, we are here to support you.
