Who is Cardinal Services?
A Legacy of Care. A Future of Promise.
Our purpose is to lead the way to 100% equity, inclusion and access for people with disabilities, families and communities.
Our Impact
We live up to our purpose by enriching education, enhancing health, expanding employment, and elevating community throughout northeast Indiana.
Our Values
These core values guide our behaviors and decision making as we work together to achieve our purpose.
Our Organization
Cardinal Services began in 1954, when parents in Kosciusko County were confronted with a lack of resources to support them in raising children with disabilities. What started as a handful of children learning from a single teacher in a living room has grown and evolved over the past 70 years. Today we provide a wide range of services and support to Kosciusko and surrounding counties.
In 2021, our capacity to serve our community was enhanced through a strategic alignment. As a result, Easterseals Northern Indiana is now the parent organization providing executive leadership, strategic guidance and administrative functions for both Cardinal Services and Easterseals Arc of Northeast Indiana.
