Easterseals Empowers People To Live Independent, Full Lives
Our national Affiliate network provides essential services to children and adults with disabilities, older adults, veterans, and their families.
To Kim and her son, Jaxon, Easterseals has been a second family. She appreciates how Easterseals exhausts all avenues to find solutions for individuals with disabilities. “Easterseals is ... where you come back to. You can take a deep breath. Relax. And just know that you’re not judged by anything,” Kim says.
Major airlines in the United States break or destroy 31 wheelchairs every single day. That's why we launched a national public service announcement campaign about the issue. Join Easterseals in helping make sure planes connect everyone to family and friends, to opportunity, and to possibilities.
Check out "Everything You Know About Disability is Wrong," a podcast for the disability community by the disability community, hosted by two disabled women. The "On Board with Transparent Leadership" podcast explores strategies for fostering a culture of openness and accountability in any organization.
