RadioASB initiates Epilepsy Awareness Promotion Campaign

San Diego, CA – November 15, 2006 - Syntarus Corporation, a global telecommunications, radio broadcast programming and information management technology firm based in San Diego, CA today formally announced that subsidiary RadioASB (American Songbook Radio) has initiated an “Epilepsy Awareness” promotion campaign on behalf of the Epilepsy Foundation of San Diego County.

RadioASB Executive Vice President Richard F. Burrell explains, “As the result of our recently formed liaison as media partner with the Foundation, RadioASB will begin providing significant radio promotion for the Epilepsy Foundation of San Diego County, their services and events.”

Did you also know that one in every one hundred people in the United States has Epilepsy, and that one third of the 125,000 new cases each year begin in childhood? In San Diego alone there are 30,000 people suffering from Epilepsy.

The Epilepsy Foundation of San Diego County is a private non-profit health agency dedicated to the prevention and control of epilepsy and is the only health agency providing services to the estimated 30,000 people in San Diego County afflicted with seizure disorders. The foundation also offers extensive assistance designed to help the families of victims cope with and overcome the problems associated with this condition.

Originally established in 1954 as the Epilepsy Society with the mission objective of providing epilepsy victims and their families much needed support through education, research and service, the foundation has since expanded with a wide variety of assistance that includes individual and family counseling, career development, vocational counseling, referral and individual advocacy; a parent network, adult and parent support groups, in-service educational seminars, a speakers bureau and classroom presentations. All of these services are free and are available to anyone whose life is touched by epilepsy, regardless of the severity of the disability and without regard to race, creed, age, sex or nationality.

Apart from the direct physical effects of seizures, people with epilepsy have to deal with a very special handicap - the misconceptions of others. Many people believe that epilepsy means mental illness or violent convulsions, and thus withdraw when they hear that someone has epilepsy.

Some employers refuse employment opportunities for the same reasons, even though the person with epilepsy might be qualified and thoroughly capable of doing the job. As a result many people afflicted with epilepsy, fearing embarrassment and prejudice, are afraid to be open about their disorder.

Epilepsy affects people in many different ways, with some victims subject to only a few seizures in a lifetime while others may need constant medical supervision to gain control of their lives. Most epilepsy victims have to deal with the negative medication side-effects, overwhelming medical bills, unemployment, social rejection and lack of independence. Fortunately, many epilepsy sufferers can lead highly productive lives.

Goals of the Epilepsy Foundation of San Diego County include:
• Improve self-esteem and social skills in children and adults with epilepsy
• Increase individual and public understanding about the potential and needs of those with epilepsy regarding education, employment, recreation, and housing
• Promote equal opportunity and full participation in life increase the awareness of the legal rights of persons with epilepsy
• Promote prevention and early recognition of epilepsy

Support Services include:
• Individual Counseling
• Family Counseling
• Parent & Family Network
• Support Groups
• Individual Advocacy

Educational Services include:
• Monthly Symposium
• Educational Seminars
• In-Service Training for professionals, including school personnel, law enforcement, medical personnel, service providers and employers
