Serve Extraordinary A Letter from Brent Wirth, President and CEO For nearly a century, Easter Seals Michigan has empowered extraordinary individuals to live more independent lives. Our story has evolved over time, but our purpose remains the same.

We help people with behavioral, physical or developmental challenges live extraordinary lives.

Our programs support individuals and families of all ages – from birth to older adults. We served more than 9,000 people last year, partnering with each individual to improve their quality of life and prosper, undeterred by physical disabilities, behavioral health challenges, or autism spectrum disorders. We continue to adapt, responding to the needs of the community and tailoring services to meet the unique needs of each person and their family.

Each and every day, we are afforded the opportunity to see the very best of people; from those we serve, those in the community, or from within our team. The stories and statistics in this annual impact report are real; they are about people whose lives have been transformed by taking action for better control of their lives with the support of everyday heroes who Serve Extraordinary.

Our passionate team helps transform the lives of individuals at any stage of life: from five-yearold Rocky who attended one of our summer camps where he learned new skills and became his very own soccer star, to adults like Guillermo who - after coming to Easter Seals Michigan for help with depression and alcohol use - is now 13 months sober with a full-time job at a restaurant.

The year 2013 was a remarkable one at Easter Seals Michigan. We witnessed record requests for services and saw a marked increase in volunteers. Our donors were generous, as our gifts increased, allowing us to advance and strengthen our mission to serve more in need.

We thank our volunteers, donors, community and corporate partners for investing in what we do. Their gifts of time, talent and resources make a significant difference in people’s lives and ensure Easter Seals Michigan will continue to play a critical role as we look to a future that holds extraordinary possibilities for everyone.

Social netWorker Danielle felt lost in her efforts to connect with her son, Daniel, who has autism. Before finding Easter Seals Michigan, Daniel had never spoken a single word. After treatment, Daniel was finally able to tell his mother that he loved her. “At school, Daniel knows no strangers,” explains his mom. “He gives everyone high fives, from the principal to the janitors. Everyone knows who Daniel is and he knows everyone.”

Daniel Easter Seals Michigan Child Ambassador

When Daniel was just a baby his mother began noticing that he didn’t seem to respond to her voice or touch. At 2½ years old, Daniel was diagnosed with autism and began receiving Early Intervention Treatment.

With help from Easter Seals Michigan and his parents, his language skills have grown over time. “When Daniel started receiving Autism Services, he didn’t speak. Not one word,” says Daniel’s mom, Danielle. Those words slowly began coming as Danielle learned how to interact with her son. “I still remember the first time he went to school and he turned and said, ‘Goodbye, Mom.’ He was four.”

Thanks to Easter Seals Michigan, Daniel’s family has made great strides tapping into his world, and now Daniel shares many of the same interests as his peers.

good Samaritan Dawn was living on the streets and struggling with substance use and depression. After receiving treatment from Easter Seals Michigan, Dawn was able to get her life back on track and now uses her time to help others around her.

DAWN Easter Seals Michigan Adult Ambassador

Dawn never thought that she had a problem with drugs or depression, but those that around her knew different. It took Dawn losing her home and everything that she cared about to realize that she needed help. When Dawn first came to Easter Seals Michigan she was fighting a long history of substance use and depression. She was homeless and struggling with instability.

After establishing a treatment plan with the Easter Seals Michigan staff, she was on her road to living her life as a sober and independent person. Over the years there have been many hurdles, but due to her resiliency and the Easter Seals Michigan staff, Dawn is sober, has her own apartment and has devoted her life to helping others while she continues to receive treatment from Easter Seals Michigan.
