Areas of Support

Easterseals offers a variety of home and community-based services across the country, aimed at connecting people to quality education, health, employment, community, and transportation services. Our approach addresses many needs in communities across the country.

Enriching Education To Help All Children Succeed

Easterseals helps children start life strong. We give children across the country quality early childhood education and developmental support. Our Child Development Center Network is a leading provider of childcare in the U.S., serving more than 25,000 children every day. The first five years of life are important for helping children and parents, benefiting society as a whole (Brookings, 2021). Future success in school, the workplace, and beyond starts before age five. 

Addressing Gaps in Health To Improve Quality of Life at All Stages of Life

Easterseals empowers people with disabilities to lead independent lives. We make a lasting difference by providing care and support at every stage of life. Families and caregivers are critical to our programs, and we support their physical, mental, and emotional health as well. 

Expanding Access To Gainful Employment  

Easterseals helps people find jobs and succeed at work. Our programs support people with disabilities, older adults, and veterans at every stage in their careers. We offer people assistive technology skills training, job coaching and mentors, financial literacy programs, and accessible transportation, and connect them with employers to help fill jobs. 

Creating Safe & Fulfilling Opportunities for Connection

Easterseals creates opportunities for people to connect and flourish. Our wide range of services supports people in many parts of their lives and offers community and belonging. 

Connecting People to Where They Want To Go

Easterseals ensures people can access reliable transportation services. Transportation impacts everyone and supports independence. It helps people reach their jobs, school, and medical appointments. Access to transportation also supports childcare and contributes to health and well-being.
