The Access 2 Card is a program offered by Easter Seals that helps make entertainment, cultural, and recreational opportunities more available and accessible to all. The Access 2 Card is for people of all ages and types of permanent disabilities who require the assistance of a support person. When the Access 2 Card, which can be applied for online, is presented at participating entertainment, cultural and recreational venues, the support person receives a free or discounted admission.
