Cathy Bisaillon
President and Chief Executive Officer
Cathy Bisaillon has worked for Easterseals Washington since 1995, and has been the President and Chief Executive Officer since 2002. Her commitment to helping people with disabilities and their families dates back to her ninth birthday when she met her cousin, Beth Ann, who had Down Syndrome. From that day when she and Beth Ann played the piano together, Cathy formed the attitude that all people deserve the opportunity to feel productive and included in their communities.
