PSA: Disability Is Not Inability

As America’s largest nonprofit health care organization since its founding in 1919, Easterseals is committed to the comprehensive health and wellness of the more than 1.5 million people it serves each year, ensuring that the needs of children and adults with disabilities, veterans and older adults are met with services and supports to help them live, learn, work and play in their communities.

In this time of need, Easterseals continues to advance change to assure that people with disabilities and other special needs are 100% included and 100% empowered through our on-the-ground presence, deep expertise and diverse programs.

Our PSAs exemplify the life-changing impact that Easterseals services have in the lives of the one in four Americans living with disability today. Our latest spot has a new focus on the fact that Disability Is Not Inability. A person’s Ability may be different, but still an Ability, regardless of race, age, physical or mental condition.

This reminds us that as we continue to serve millions of people across the country, we need support of stations like yours to deliver these timely and important messages to individuals and families to assure them that Easterseals is there for them in their local communities.

Thank you for considering airing of this PSA from our CEO. It is certain to be of value to the 61 million people living with disability in communities nationwide – and the people who love and care for them.
