Serving Texans since 1937
There are currently, according to CDC data 5,435,500 Texans living with a disability whether they were born with one or developed one through an accident or illness. These could be your family, friends, and neighbors. Many of them may not have access to services and resources they need to live, play and contribute in their community. We are working to change that.
Easterseals Lone Star is a local nonprofit, which for more than 85 years has supported the disability community of Central Texas. Through our programs and services, we champion the abilities of our clients to realize their full potential. |
Easterseals Lonestar currently serves more than 15,000 individuals with disabilities and our goal by the year 2025 is to help 20,000 people in the communities we serve.
We provide services in areas that span from birth to advanced age insuring that all are given an opportunity to fully participate in their communities: |
