In honor of #HispanicHeritageMonth, our Easterseals Louisiana corporate office staff brought the fiesta to our students at The ESL Chartwell Center! They treated our PATH students to mouthwatering Mexican omelets and refreshing passionfruit juice, all while sharing the joy of bilingual storytelling with an English-to-Spanish book reading for every class. It was a morning filled with delicious flavors and an unforgettable lesson! 🌟 📚 #EastersealsLouisiana #CulturalCelebration #HispanicHeritageMonth #DiversityAndInclusion

Big shoutout to our Region 3 (Thibodaux) team for their Community Give-Back event! 🎉 They collected new undergarments and socks for Thibodaux Elementary, ensuring that students who have accidents at school have clean items to change into. Thanks to the generosity of our ESL staff, teachers won’t have to buy these essentials out of pocket, and families can feel a little more at ease. Together, we’re making a difference! 💙✨ #EastersealsLouisiana #CommunityGiveback #SupportOurSchools

#HispanicHeritageMonth Spotlight: Jeison Aristizábal 🌱 Jeison Aristizábal grew up in an impoverished area of Cali, Colombia, living with cerebral palsy. He pushed past society’s limits to make a massive impact on individuals with disabilities. In 2016, he was named CNN’s Hero of the Year for his non-profit, Asodisvalle, which provides free education, medical care, therapy, and job training for children and families with disabilities in Colombia. He also opened the first university in Latin America for young people with disabilities, offering classes like computer programming, culinary arts, and music. Jeison’s goal to provide valuable resources to children and families with disabilities aligns perfectly with Easterseals Louisiana's mission—to change how the world views and defines disabilities so our participants can reach their full potential with less barriers. #EastersealsLouisiana #HispanicHertiageMonth #RepresentationMatters #HispanicVoices

Before connecting with Region 1 (New Orleans) housing case manager Nicole, this participant was facing severe medical issues and needed to relocate closer to family. In 2023, Nicole connected this participant to one of our assistive rehousing programs, and after viewing units together, they were successfully rehoused in 2024. On Nicole’s last visit, our participant expressed gratitude, saying, “Thank you, Easterseals and Unity of Greater New Orleans, for rehousing me and helping me.” Nicole reflected, “I’m glad they are progressing. They are truly transitioning well.” Our Easterseals Louisiana team is committed to providing individuals who battle diverse mental and physical needs with essentials like stable housing to live happy and fulfilling lives. #EastersealsLouisiana #HousingSupport #CommunityImpact
