Easterseals Colorado offers a variety of fun, healthy programs for children to relax, connect, and engage in activities necessary to living the best life possible.

From our fully accessible camps nestled in the Rockies to community-based respite and recreation opportunities, we offer safe, supportive spaces where participants can build independence, develop lifelong friendships, and enjoy the freedom of play. Whether for a weekend getaway, a summer adventure, or much-needed caregiver respite, our programs celebrate ability and create lasting memories for individuals and families alike.
