Having epilepsy or caring for someone with epilepsy can be challenging. Sometimes the practical problems of daily living (i.e. insurance, jobs, and medical care) can be overwhelming. It helps to have someone to talk to who understands what you are going through.

• A place to talk with people who know where you’re coming from;
• A forum to give and receive information about epilepsy and treatments;
• A place to stay informed about the latest legislation, research, and resources.

NA is a nonprofit Fellowship or society of men and women for whom drugs had become a major problem. We are recovering addicts who meet regularly to help each other stay clean. This is a program of complete abstinence from all drugs. There is only one requirement for membership, the desire to stop using (BT p.9).

This is a virtual meeting conducted in Spanish.

WWP Talk is our free mental health support line where you’ll be connected to a person who will listen, and help.

We know that having reliable support makes your journey easier. So in these weekly calls, you’ll be heard without judgment. Together, we’ll find a way to help, developing coping skills and a practical plan to work toward your goals, big or small.

To be eligible for this program you must be a veteran or service member who incurred a physical or mental injury, illness, or wound while serving in the military on or after September 11, 2001, or their family member or caregiver.

If you're new to WWP, register today to access all the programs and services we offer to ease your transition to civilian life.
