    A Powerful Story of Progress

    When Brinley was only two days old, doctors discovered that her brain had not formed fully or correctly. Her parents wondered, would she walk? Would she talk? They turned to Easterseals DuPage & Fox Valley for answers.

    Julian's Journey

    Julian, born three months premature and later diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, attended the Lily Garden Childcare Center for over three years. During that time, he gained social skills, independence, and built meaningful friendships with strong support for both him and his father.

    Jack's Year in Review

    There was no playbook for Jack’s parents to follow through his premature birth, NICU stay, cerebral palsy diagnosis, or countless doctor visits. But when they found Easterseals, they found direction, support, and hope.

    Addy & Lily

    At our Gala three years ago, we introduced Addy and Lily – twin sisters, who were born conjoined at the chest and spent nearly 11 months in the hospital before undergoing the surgery that would successfully separate them.

    We also honored a team of Easterseals therapists who supported Addy and Lily’s earliest achievements and are still a part of their milestones.
