Come join Walk Chair Greg Grunberg (star of NBC's "Heroes") and thousands of dedicated supporters of people with epilepsy and their families as we walk on the Mall at the start of cherry blossom season in Washington, D.C. You can also participate virtually anywhere in the country or the world to help support epilepsy.

The Partnership for Prescription Assistance brings together America's pharmaceutical companies, doctors, other health care providers, patient advocacy organizations and community groups to help qualifying patients who lack prescription coverage get the medicines they need through the public or private program that's right for them. Many will get them free or nearly free. PPARxMO is a Web site designed to help low-income, uninsured Missouri residents get free or discounted brand-name medicines. http://pparxmo.org/
