For almost 60 years, our chapter of The Arc has been working to improve the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and their families. Whether it's advocating for an individual or family, behind-the-scenes work to shape policy, or educating others, all of our programming aims to remove barriers and create more opportunities for people with disabilities.
