Talk About It

Talkaboutit.org was founded by television star Greg Grunberg (Felicity, NBC's Heroes) in collaboration with the Epilepsy Foundation of America. It unites Hollywood stars to engage people to talk more about epilepsy in order to end the stigma. Greg Grunberg's young son, Jake, has epilepsy. Want to watch and hear stars like John Mayer and Jennifer Garner talk about epilepsy? Check out this site.
