Enriching lives and expanding opportunities for all children and adults in our communities
About us
For more than 100 years, Easterseals has been the indispensable community resource for people and families living —and thriving with — disabilities in DC, Maryland and Virginia. Through the innovative, inclusive and person-centered work we do, we are strengthening our community and changing the way the world defines and views disability. We are committed to making profound, positive differences in people’s lives every day. We champion all of life’s moments. What connects us and brings us closer together. All that makes us different, and yet, very much the same. That’s why, for the over 100 years, we’ve provided our communities with the powerful advocacy and life changing services for children and adults with disabilities, veterans and older adults – and those who care for them. Today, we honor that legacy with an eye to the future—the next 100 years. And we’re committed to building a world where everyone is 100% included. All abilities. Limitless possibilities.

"Ben is generous and gentle with his prompts, feedback, and encouragement. Spending this hour with him is a highlight of my month." --CBAW participant Tuesday, April 23rd at 12 pm ET, a writing workshop with author Ben Weakley in partnership with our friends at Cohen Veterans Network Clinics at Easterseals DC MD VA & The Up Center. Join us for a generative creative writing workshop where we use the written and spoken word to find healing and self-discovery together in a welcoming, safe community. Open to all voices. No experience necessary. Register: https://lnkd.in/gSJQddiD Ben Weakley spent fourteen years in the US Army, beginning with deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan and finishing at a desk inside the Pentagon. He writes poetry and prose about the enduring nature of war and the human experience for veterans, their families, and anyone who would help them bear witness to war and its aftermath. His first collection of poetry, HEAT + PRESSURE was published by Middle West Press LLC in 2022. His work appears in Military Times, ONE ART, Sequestrum, Cutleaf Journal, and The Wrath-Bearing Tree, among others. He lives in Kingsport, Tennessee with his wife, two teenage children, and a well-meaning, but poorly-behaved hound-dog named Camo.
