The Easterseals annual Advocacy Awards dinner will begin 6 p.m. on April 29 at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C.
The ceremony honors advocates who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to advancing opportunities for children and adults with disabilities or special needs, including military families. This year’s event will recognize Northern Virginia Technology Council President and CEO Bobbie Kilberg; Amazon Web Services (award to be accepted Vice President of Federal Government David Levy); and retired Navy Adm. Michael Mullen, who served as the 17th chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Since 2004, the Advocacy Awards have been one of the Washington, D.C., area’s premier networking events and have generated more than $6 million to fund Easterseals programs. Those programs and services include child development, respite, caregiver training, adult day services, a veteran staffing network, the Easterseals Disability Staffing Network, homeless veterans reintegration and the Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic.
Several sponsorship opportunities are available. For more information, visit the website, email events@eseal.org or call (301) 920-9702.
