We do this by reimagining how care and support can be better connected to fill gaps in human services across an individual's lifespan. false false 14448623 14008995 Behavioral Health: In 2023, we continued to grow our Parent-Led Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) offerings for families using the options of telehealth, a hybrid model, and traditional in-person services. Based in our desire to increase availability of a modality that decreases parental stress and increases efficacy, we set out to grow our Parent-Led Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) service line, which saw a growth of 40% in participating families, empowering them to provide ABA techniques anywhere and at any time. Our Group ABA and Social Skills Groups continued to provide our clients under 18 with opportunities to expand their social and cognitive skills with peers, relying on the practice of self-designated goals and shared interests. By increasing our offerings to include Chat for children under age 6 and Compass-Behavioral for youth-aged clients, we were able to support 80 individuals and families in their unique goals in these two newly launched services. Our comprehensive Caregiver Coaching model similarly gives parents and caregivers the one-to-one education from a high-level practitioner to focus on specific ABA strategies to feel more comfortable working with their children at home to reach target skills. Our new Connect program allows parents and caregivers of loved ones with PIMD to learn how to teach their loved one new skills while connecting to their needs and wants -- under the tutelage of a clinician. Our Respite Services deliver in-person care for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) so parents and caregivers can take much-needed breaks to prevent burnout, while our Respite Associates provide hours of socialization and connection to our participants each week. 3191629 2989099 Early Intervention (EI): Easterseals Northern California's Early Intervention (EI) program served over 1,400 families in 2023, ensuring children could close developmental gaps through individualized treatment plans that address delays in overall development, motor skills and language. Early Interventionists helped support families through education and coaching, consultation with schools, childcare agencies and other service providers. Our EI programs serve children from birth to age 5 through our continued partnership with the various Regional Centers in Northern California. Our EI program in Lake County has continued offering its Infant Massage Training program to help parents and caregivers bond with their babies. Additional programming that continued and expanded in 2023 was our Learning Focus Groups, presently available in 9 Northern California counties. These 30-minute sessions, currently being provided virtually, include gross and fine motor skill development techniques, art and sensory activities, modeling for parents and caregivers, expressive and receptive language skills development, with a focus on important practices such as sharing, handwashing and toileting. Parents and caregivers have a safe, judgment-free space to connect and discover new parenting techniques. One of our greatest achievements in 2023 was the expansion of our EI program north into Mendocino, Humboldt, and Shasta counties. Recognizing delays early, being able to obtain an assessment, and moving children quickly into treatment is essential to helping them catch up during critical stages of development, and seeing how our services were positively impacting children and families in the regions we had previously been serving inspired us to expand farther north and provide more families with access to developmental support. Our goal for 2025 is to continue to grow our in-person programming to more rural and underserved families all the way to the Oregon border. 1695020 1074720 Kaleidoscope Community Adult Program: In 2023, our Kaleidoscope Community Adult Program (KCAP), which supports individuals ages 18 and up with intellectual and developmental disabilities, continued providing its community-based programming in Dublin and Walnut Creek, focusing on community integration, socialization, skills development, and connection-building amongst the participants with a fun, educational and creative curriculum. During this time, Kaleidoscope grew to 47 participants - the largest number of participants in the program's history - while 3 participants transitioned out of the program. In 2023, Kaleidoscope provided more than 50,000 hours of service, and hosted weekly visits across the San Francisco Bay Area to engage in various activities like dining at restaurants and golfing, visiting museums, hiking in local state parks, volunteering with other nonprofit organizations, taking unique classes like survival skills and American Sign Language, and following through on wellbeing initiatives including yoga, walking and daily journaling. Critical programs like Kaleidoscope offer participants opportunities for socialization and community integration, pre-employment training, leisure and recreation, and training for independent life skills including home and personal hygiene, money management, transportation, safety and self-advocacy.

We do this by reimagining how care and support can be better connected to fill gaps in human services across an individual's lifespan. Easterseals Northern California (ESNorCal) continued to fulfill its purpose, provide high-quality services, maintain excellent client satisfaction, and expand its service lines to provide a more comprehensive suite of treatments for wider breadth of diagnoses. Using a person-centered philosophy of care, innovative technologies like our companion app myBrightlink, and offering new clinical services that focus on empowering individuals and families, Easterseals Northern California continued meeting the needs of those in our care through Northern California. Our focus on employee wellbeing and engagement remained strong; in addition to our standard and robust health benefits, we offered expanded mental health benefits and tuition reimbursement to our frontline workforce. In 2023, we served over 3,500 families and delivered over 145,000 service hours. Additionally, we introduced several new service lines including: . Respite Services to provide parents and caregivers with a much-needed break to support their wellbeing . Chat to boost communication skills . Connect to promote wellbeing among families with loved ones who have profound intellectual multiple disabilities (PIMD) . Compass-Behavioral to improve organizational skills and emotional regulation in youths using a custom self-guided program. In August of 2023, the Easterseals Northern California team - as well as its colleagues and donors within its family of companies and Easterseals, Inc. - rallied together to contribute to the Easterseals Hawaii Relief Fund, its sister organization, to support the staff and participants directly affected by the wildfires that tore through Lahaina. Easterseals Northern California is also a member of a family of companies including Catalight and Easterseals Hawaii. Across the three companies, there are nearly 800 employees working together in support of our shared purpose, which is to create a more equitable world where people with developmental disabilities can choose their path.
