Our Mission:
Easterseals Military & Veterans Services, in partnership with Veterans Count, responds rapidly, efficiently and effectively to the unmet needs of service members, veterans and their families to ensure that they can thrive in their communities.
Our Unique Approach:
We developed a one-of-a-kind Care Coordination program that provides free and confidential support designed to meet the unique needs of service members, veterans and their families. Our program works in conjunction with existing military, VA and community programs, and is an important part of the full range of service member/family support services.
