WHY WE EXIST

Community and Support.

In 1964, our founding families saw that their kids weren’t getting the support they needed. More could be done, so they founded The Arc of the Ozarks.

Since then, The Arc has been pioneering new services to help people with disabilities find housing, work, and support for themselves and their families.

See how it all began.
