The Arc advocates to enhance the dignity, expand the opportunities, and protect the rights of persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.

Our Vision:

The Arc envisions a world in which all persons have the support and opportunities they need for personal development, independence, and interdependence with family and friends, and inclusion in the community.

We Believe:

  • People with developmental disabilities have the right to live in and be part of their community.
  • Full inclusion should be a reality not a dream.
  • Families with children with developmental disabilities should get the supports they need to maintain a healthy family.
  • People who work with individuals with developmental disabilities should earn a living wage and receive the training they need.
