Our History
In 1959, a small group of parents recognized the need for services for their children with developmental disabilities. A support network was built for these children and their families resulting in the 1964 establishment of The Arc.
Today, The Arc serves individuals with a variety of disabilities. Services and programs include community living, employment, recreational,
community support, educational, family advocacy, autism and
therapeutic.
The Arc is affiliated with The Arc of the U.S., and our programs are accredited by Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF).
