What Redwood does

Easterseals Redwood is a nonprofit human services organization founded in 1953 and headquartered in Kenton, USA, operating 11 home, facility, and community locations across Ohio and Kentucky. The organization employs more than 400 team members and serves over 7,000 people and families annually, delivering approximately 10.2 million hours of meaningful support each year. Its mission centers on empowering children and adults with disabilities, military veterans, and people facing economic disadvantages to live full and meaningful lives.

The service portfolio is organized into five integrated lines: Early Childhood Learning (infant/toddler care, preschool, PPEC medical day care, medical summer program); Disability Services (children, youth/young adults, and adult services plus an Assistive Technology Resource Center); Therapy Services (early intervention, speech, physical, occupational, and ABA/behavioral supports); Employment Services (job training, placement, in-demand career training, family stability, peer recovery, and employer/corporate partner programs); and Military & Veteran Services (MVS Resource Line, veteran employment, the Klekamp Family Military and Veterans Center, transition mentoring, and crisis/emergency services). The organization also runs social enterprises — a Packaging, Fulfillment, and Logistics Center and Building Value — which provide both revenue diversification and vocational training pathways for program participants.

The business model is a hybrid nonprofit funding stack: fee-for-service from Medicaid, state developmental disability waivers, and the VA for clinical and disability services; tuition and childcare subsidies for early childhood programs; contract revenue from employer/corporate partners; earned income from social enterprises; and philanthropic contributions raised through events (Honor Ride, Brighter Futures gala, Express fundraisers) and direct donations. Go-to-market relies on referrals from healthcare providers, schools, and social services rather than traditional sales motion. Sharon Fusco serves as CEO.
