Easterseals ES Gaming is hosting Veteran’s Game Night for veterans across the country Thursday, November 7 from 6-9PM. Whether you’re a seasoned gamer or just looking for a fun way to connect with fellow veterans, join in to enjoy a night of friendly competition at www.esgaming.gg. Easterseals created the ES Gaming space to build an intentional and inclusive community of gamers, disability advocates, and allies to connect through gaming and conversation. Advocates and gamers of any skill level, age 16 or older, can participate. While Veterans Game Night is geared towards veterans, various ES Gaming events are held throughout the year. Learn more at ES Gaming – Inclusive Gaming Community.

Locally, Easterseals Western and Central Pennsylvania serves veterans and their families with essential services and supports. Employment through federal and state service contracts provide jobs earning a living wage for adults with disabilities, including veterans with disabilities. Job opportunities are located across Western and Central Pennsylvania.

Easterseals Western and Central Pennsylvania values military and veteran families through a program called Project Beacon. These are twice annual weekend retreats for the children and youth of veterans and current serving military personnel. Children and youth attend Project Beacon facing parental deployment, constant relocation, parental combat trauma, and even loss of a parent. Project Beacon provides a way for military children to meet peers in their unique situation and establish lasting friendships.
