How do I get information about agriculture safety? The Illinois Easter Seals Society has developed a program on agriculture safety for students ages
9 to 12. Teaching Agriculture Safety to Kids (TASK) is an injury prevention program designed
to help students who live on farms or in rural areas to stay safe. For additional information about
TASK, contact the Illinois Easter Seals Society at 800-525-0067.
How do I enhance my ability to live independently as a senior?
The
Illinois Easter Seals Society has a program, The Circle Project, that teaches
rural seniors about assistive technology. Assistive technology for seniors
includes items such as hearing aids,
reading devices, talking clocks, and any device that provides a safer living
environment. The program also offers demonstrations, training, and support
groups for program participants. For
additional information about The Circle Project, contact the Illinois Easter
