Story

At Easterseals, we see the whole you, and we know just how important it is to be seen. This Mental Health Awareness Month, we encourage you to look around and look within. From the neighborhood you live in to your genetic makeup, many factors come into play when it comes to mental health.

That's why we're enriching education, enhancing health, expanding employment, and elevating community so that the people we support are fulfilled in every aspect of their lives.

You can help more people than ever access support in their life by starting a fundraiser for Mental Health Awareness Month or contributing today. Your generosity helps people across Illinois, Kansas, and Missouri access programs designed to support them in every aspect of their lives.

Enriching Education

We offer a number of programs designed to help children and adults learn - and often relearn - basic functions and master the skills needed to develop, thrive, and be sharp and active throughout their lives. These programs include Applied Behavior Analysis Clinics, Home Visiting, PEERS, and Social Skills programs.

Enhancing Health

These programs are hands-on, comprehensive, and vital to ensure health and wellness so children and adults can reach their full potential. These programs include Family Navigation and Support, Parent Training and Education, Assessments and Therapy Programs, Community Living, and Home Visiting.

Expanding Employment

Our programs cover a range of discovery, training, and placement supports that help people prepare for and thrive in the workplace. These programs include Pre-Employment, Employment, Project SEARCH, LINK, STEP/SWEP, and Supported Employment.

Elevating Community

These programs are designed for children, adults, and caregivers alike to relax, connect, and thrive within their communities. We're strengthening local communities for all by encouraging active participation and engagement. Programs include Respite and Support, Community Education, Community Living, Home Visiting, and Self-Determination in Action.
