The BC Epilepsy Society was incorporated as a registered non-profit organization on August 17, 1959, under the leadership of pediatric neurologist Dr. Norman Auckland.
Dr. Auckland believed that an increased understanding of epilepsy, among those living with the disorder and their families, could help those living with the disorder to help themselves.
He created a self-help resource centre, which has now grown to become the BC Epilepsy Society's Dr. Norman Auckland Library.
The Society's programs and services today remain true to Dr. Auckland's original vision of support and education.
We're privileged to have the new Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia, the Honourable Steven Point, become our new Society Patron. For more information on His Honour and Government House, please click here.
