For 75 years

EP!C has been an industry leader in providing those essential services for over 70 years. From starting one of the nation’s first birth to age three programs to pioneering a job placement program for capable people, EP!C remains at the forefront of innovative and progressive opportunities for people in the counties we support. By empowering our participants to live their best life, we enrich their lives, the lives of their family members, and the larger Central Illinois community. 

This 2025 event will be another sensational, gourmet culinary experience!

It’s thanks in part to your sponsorship that we are able to bring one of the best celebrity chefs in the country to Peoria, IL in support of our mission.

We can’t continue to make our impact without support like yours. On behalf of the individuals, their families, our volunteers, and staff, we thank you in advance for your continued investment in people with disabilities.
