Hi, everyone! This year I've joined the board of Easterseals Eastern PA to help support their mission of providing assistance to children and adults with disabilities, as well as their families, throughout this region, including the Lehigh Valley. I am working to develop stronger partnerships between the organization and our local academic institutions, but am asking for your support at an individual level as part of our current giving campaign. As you might know, Easterseals provides crucial services such as occupational therapy for children with autism. Please consider making a donation to help support this excellent cause!

Harrison is a bright and friendly child diagnosed with autism. His relationship with Easterseals began through the Early Intervention program. Both of his parents work in the education field and they wanted to make sure Harrison would be prepared for the demands of school. So just prior to the start of kindergarten, they initiated outpatient services for both speech-language and occupational therapy.
