Chase Away Epilepsy Walk

The Signor family started the Chase Away Epilepsy Walk in 2019 to pull back the curtain on epilepsy through community awareness. Their son Chase had his first seizure in December 2015 and he wants to let other children know they are not alone with their diagnosis. "Epilepsy does not define me, it strengthens me to educate others," stated Chase, now age 14. This walk brings awareness and supports the programs of JoshProvides Epilepsy Assistance Foundation to directly help children, families and individuals living with seizures. 

JoshProvides Epilepsy Assistance Foundation

Founded by the Chapnick family in 2008 after the tragic passing of their son and brother, Joshua David Chapnick, from a fatal fall from an epileptic seizure, JoshProvides Epilepsy Assistance Foundation, Inc. offers HELP & HOPE to children, families, individuals and caregivers who are living with Epilepsy or other seizure disorder.

Our Mission: is to improve the quality of life for those living with and affected by epilepsy or other seizure disorders.

Our Vision: JoshProvides, through our network of volunteers, donors, partners, and other supporters, envisions a world where epilepsy is eradicated. Until that time, success for JoshProvides will be achieved when:

• The negative stigma associated with epilepsy has been eliminated and those who suffer from seizures are embraced by their communities. 
• No one with a seizure disorder feels alone or isolated.
• Treatment for those with epilepsy is readily available, affordable, and effective. 
• There is a network of support and resources available for those living with epilepsy.
• People are educated, trained, and can respond appropriately to help someone when they are having a seizure.
