Overview
Mission
Easterseals is leading the way to full equity, inclusion, and access through life-changing disability and community services.
What it reported doing in 2025
Adult Day Services Easterseals Washington is proud to offers Adult Day Center programs in Bremerton, providing enrichment, health services, caregiver support and advocacy. These programs ensure that adults and seniors with disabilities have access to consistent health care, educational opportunities and recreational activities to ensure that they continue to live meaningful lives in the most empowering environment possible.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and most voting board members are independent. Few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
