About Easter Seals Blake Foundation
Intake & Coordination of Care Services Intake and Coordination of Care Services provides children, teens and adults with customized eligibility, enrollment
and referral services for covered behavioral health needs including therapy, family support and in-home intervention.
Comprehensive assessments, coordination of treatment plans, as well as, psychiatric and medication services are also
available.
Children & Family Services Children & Family Services programs provide support to children and families in the areas of health, child abuse and
neglect, parenting, child development and early education, behavioral health and developmental disabilities.
Community Living Services Community Living Services provides residential and rehabilitative care for adults with cognitive & physical
disabilities. Some of the residents are dually-diagnosed with traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries. Their
disabilities have led to self-care deficits that require them to need full-time habilitation care in order to perform daily
living activities.
SAGE Employment & Community Services SAGE provides individualized residential supports and job development services to individuals with disabilities who
are in their late teens through adulthood and operates with a philosophy based on the belief that individuals with
disabilities must be full and active participants in school, work and community occupying socially-valued roles.
SAGE also offers Behavioral Health Services, including Equine Assisted Mental Health services to youth.
Supportive Living Services Supportive Living Services provides therapeutic level II group homes for children aged 5-18 with behavioral and/or
mental health issues, as well as, level II group homes for adults 18 and older with serious mental illness, traumatic
brain injury, and/or substance abuse issues, plus outreach services to ensure medication compliance, and daily living
supports in community based settings.

BUILD YOUR TEAM!
Getting Started
Set a goal. How many walkers do you want to recruit and what is your fundraising goal?
Create your team web page at www.walk-run-roll.com.
Invite friends, family and co-workers to be on your team. If you are coordinating a corporate
team, invite people located in different departments or work sites. They can also invite their
friends and families to join the team. ANYONE can be on your team!
Put Walk-Run-Roll brochures/posters in centrally-located, well-traveled locations, and let co-
workers know where they can get one. Be sure walkers contact you directly so you can keep track
of your team members. Keeping track of your team online is the best and easiest way, so
encourage online registration!
Place a Walk-Run-Roll article in your organization’s newsletter. A sample article is included in
this kit for you to personalize. Check now to find out your newsletter’s deadline.
Try to get on the agendas of all department meetings. If you would like a staff member from
Easter Seals to come speak to your co-workers, contact Carrie Durham at 520.327.1529 x124 or
