    Welcome to the 2nd Annual Seize the Day Warrior Walk in New Orleans!

    We are Epilepsy Alliance Louisiana (EAL), the oldest epilepsy organization in the state, dedicated to supporting people living with epilepsy through direct services, education, and advocacy. Since 1977, we have provided essential community services across Louisiana, reaching thousands of individuals impacted by epilepsy. Our mission is to assist those affected by epilepsy within their communities by addressing the broad spectrum of challenges seizures can bring.

    We are thrilled to bring the Seize the Day event back to New Orleans on Saturday, March 7, 2026! As part of our statewide effort to support people with epilepsy, this event will feature the Warrior Walk — a 1-mile walk dedicated to celebrating the strength and resilience of those affected by epilepsy.

    By focusing exclusively on the Warrior Walk, we aim to create a deeply engaging and accessible experience for everyone in the community. This format allows us to unite more people in raising epilepsy awareness and supporting our mission in a new and impactful way.

    The Warrior Walk is more than just a walk; it’s a chance for our community to come together, raise essential funds for our programs and services, and increase awareness about epilepsy. Your participation in this event will help us expand our reach and impact across Louisiana.

    Join us in New Orleans and be part of this inspiring event. Register now to show your support for the epilepsy community!

    Join us on Saturday April 4, 2026 at 8:00am in New Orleans for the LCMC Health Crescent City Classic. Since 1979, the CCC 10k has been a New Orleans tradition. The race is produced locally by the Crescent City Classic Foundation, a not-for-profit 5013c entity. People of all physical abilities participate, including world-class runners, joggers, walkers, wheelchair athletes, kids in strollers, and even those with rolling beer coolers.

    The events surrounding the Crescent City Classic make for a jam-packed Easter weekend. The fun includes a two-day Health & Fitness Expo, free and open to the public. Many runners sign up simply to attend the post-race party hosted by Michelob Ultra, complete with live music from local bands and world-famous New Orleans cuisine!

    But there’s a serious side to the Classic as well. Every year, the “Run for It” Program sets out to raise $1 million to support local charity partners. No matter who crosses the finish line first, everyone wins!
