Easter Seals

Easter Seals (founded in 1919 as the National Society for Crippled Children) is an American nonprofit charitable organization that assists more than one million children and adults with disabilities and special needs (including autism) through a network of more than 550 service sites in the United States, Canada, Australia and Puerto Rico.

Sites provide services, therapies and treatments tailored to meet the specific needs of the particular community they serve. The organization assists children and adults with physical and mental disabilities and special needs resulting from any cause, whether diagnosed at birth or incurred through disease, accidental injury or the aging process.
