Easterseals Crossroads and the Community Alliance of the Far Eastside (CAFE) hosted their third annual Community Day.

The free event invited residents of all ages to come together for food, activities and to shed light on dozens of organizations in the area that provide resources.

“There’s information that they need about healthcare, transportation, financial resources or services for individuals with intellectual disabilities,” Cheria Caldwell, with CAFE, said.

Attendees could also receive a “passport” to use while visiting different community partners.
