The Little Warriors scholarship program provides for children of wounded warriors to attend one of our Easterseals Child Development Centers. We understand the unique challenges and transitions military families face. Our program is committed to the individual needs of children of wounded warriors. Children have the opportunity to discover and explore in a safe, nurturing environment as they achieve school readiness.
