Empowering People for More Than 100 Years

Easterseals has been helping families for more than a century. At least 70% of families in our network use more than one service. This shows several important things:

• Whole person care: Whole person care means feeling good physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. Families get different kinds of help from Easterseals based on multiple needs, which can lead to better well-being.
• Better use of resources: Using many services helps families use their resources well. This means they get the help they need without wasting time looking for different services.
• Improved outcomes: Getting many services can help families be healthier and happier. For example, getting help with social skills and mental health can help children do better in school and feel better.
• Stronger community ties: When Easterseals can connect families to different services, we also connect with community groups for things like rides, housing, and food. More of us working together means we can help more families in communities across the country.
• Growing and improving programs: Knowing that families use many services helps us make better programs. This makes it easier for families to get the help they need.
