The Epilepsy Association of Maryland was incorporated in 1964 by a group of physicians and parents of children with epilepsy who recognized a need for more than just medical treatment for individuals with epilepsy.
As time progressed, the organization began providing services to individuals with varying types of disabilities. To reflect a broader targeted population, [Abilities Network] was incorporated in 2000, and has grown from the volunteer-driven facilitation of support groups and public/professional education to our current extensive and varied organization.
Through its many expansions over the past 40 years, [Abilities Network] continues to work hand-in-hand with our sister organization, the Epilepsy Foundation of the Chesapeake Region, (EFCR). Today over 21,000 people are served statewide through a multiplicity of programs and services made available to individuals diagnosed with varying disabilities and to families at-risk.
Our mission is to provide customized services to children, adults and families of differing abilities that focus on one-on-one supports to foster broadened, more inclusive communities through education, training and advocacy. [Abilities Network] helps to create a personal path to independence by seeing abilities, not disabilities.
Abilities Network is a growing organization currently employing over 200 employees in Maryland. To accomplish our mission we tailor our support staff to meet the needs of each individual we provide services to. Our staff’s goal is to help each individual we serve find a personal path to independence by seeing abilities, not disabilities. Abilities Network also maintains a strong administrative staff to meet the needs of the foundation.
