Every movement opens a door to new possibilities. During National Physical Therapy Month, we are celebrating the power of physical therapy at The Bridge Center.

Our physical therapists help children and adults build strength, balance, endurance, mobility, and confidence through meaningful, individualized experiences. Whether working in the therapy room, on the accessible playground, or on a horse, they help participants develop skills that support greater independence and participation in the activities they love.

Physical therapy is about more than reaching milestones. It is creating opportunities for connection, exploration, confidence, and joy. This month, we recognize the incredible impact physical therapists have on the lives of the individuals and families we serve.

Easterseals Massachusetts is looking for Physical Therapists to join our dynamic team! Apply now and celebrate PT Month by starting your career with us! Visit careers.eastersealsma.org.

Congratulations to Jennifer, Senior Payroll & HRIS Specialist, for reaching the milestone of 20 dedicated years of service at Easterseals Massachusetts! Jennifer, when asked, “What keeps you motivated, year after year, in your job?” shared, "What motivates me most is knowing that while payroll numbers need to add up, the impact of our work goes far beyond the numbers! Accurate payroll, reliable HRIS systems, and smooth HR processes help keep the people who make a difference focused on what matters most. I love being the person behind the scenes at ESMA because I have a front-row seat when it comes to bringing smiles to others on payday!" We are grateful for your commitment, Jennifer!
