CareEpilepsy Ethiopia is a pioneering non-profit dedicated to transforming epilepsy care in Ethiopia. Founded in 2015 by Enat Yewnetu, a global health advocate, public health expert, and person living with epilepsy.
The organisation was born from lived experience and a powerful mission: to make epilepsy visible, treatable, and prioritised in a health system that too often overlooks it.We deliver and facilitate vital services including clinical care, anti-seizure medications, EEG and MRI diagnostics, mental health support, and wellbeing assistance.
Our wellbeing program provides peer support, home visits, transportation assistance, school reintegration, and, when available, basic essentials such as food and clothing for patients in dire need, ensuring support extends beyond the clinic to the most vulnerable.
