Building an Inclusive Future for Everyone
Our Mission: Empowering every individual with disabilities to flourish in their communities.
Our Vision: An inclusive Arkansas where every individual, regardless of disability, achieves their full potential.
The Roadmap to a Fully Inclusive Society
For eight decades, Easterseals Arkansas has been the guiding light for inclusion in our state. Our humble roots were sown with a singular purpose: to ensure children and adults with disabilities experience society as equal participants.
Today, as we navigate the challenges and celebrate the milestones, our ambition remains undeterred — to pave the path for 100% equity, inclusion, and access.
Where Passion Meets Purpose
At Easterseals, we believe in the potential of people. Our strength lies in our compassionate, skilled team dedicated to making daily interactions transformational. They are the lifeblood of our mission, the embodiment of our vision, making sure that every day we inch closer to an inclusive world.
History showcases our adaptability. Whenever community needs surfaced, donor generosity merged with innovative breakthroughs, enabling us to enhance our reach and refine our approach.
Beyond Boundaries
The Ripple Effect of Easterseals
Amy Lively, a mother whose life was touched by our services, recalls, “My son (who is 24) recently moved out into an apartment. I am just now seeing what disability pride means. He is just so happy and proud of what he’s done.”
Such heartwarming tales inspire us daily. To make such stories a norm rather than an exception, we’ve initiated the Innovating for Independence strategic move.
Join Our Quest for Change
As we set forth on this ambitious journey, we invite you to be our partner in change. Let’s redefine societal norms. Let’s witness more stories like Justin’s. Together, we’ll transform the societal perspective on disability.
The national Easterseals movement is pioneering a revolution – a world where equity, inclusion, and access aren’t just buzzwords but a lived reality. By choosing to be a part of this transformation, you’re not just supporting a cause; you’re championing a vision.
We dream of Arkansas as a gold standard for inclusivity – a place where working, learning, playing, and living knows no bounds. With your help, we can make this vision a reality.
