Easter Seals Nova Scotia was recently notified of a 12.45% cut to our core funding, representing more than $100,000.00, and directly affecting our New Leaf program which provides front line services for people living with disabilities. This vibrant program, founded in 1957 within our Easter Seals Nova Scotia family, provides people with choice in skills training, youth employment support, recreational opportunities and holistic therapies. We provide these services daily to over 80 people living with both intellectual and/or physical disabilities in our community. The services provided by New Leaf align with the spirit, intent and opportunities which are at the core of The Remedy. This decrease in funding during a time of reorganization and re-calibration of our services to meet the goals of The Remedy will be impacted. Our goal is to continue providing the life-changing and compassionate services and supports we have been delivering for decades in our community. Joanne Bernard, President and CEO Easter Seals Nova Scotia And Angela Rafuse, Chair Board of Directors, ESNS
Remember when Houston banned students who require support from school for 6 weeks in 2023? Lots would go on to work at places like Easter Seals. #CUPE

As of mother of an advance care paramedic I need to say this. $5,000 a year coverage for mental health doesn’t begin to cover what is needed. They are first responders. People have no idea what they see and they do. Union need to fight harder for them. #CUPE
