Help Support the ARC!To a World of Opportunity
Today, children and adults with Developmental Disabilities have unlimited opportunities to realize their individual potential, and truly grow,thrive and contribute to our community and the world. “You don’t know what anyone is capable of until you give them the opportunity”- this well-known saying applies to 100% of the population we serve.
It is important to recognize that these citizens have many skills and talents, and that their capabilities outweigh any of their limitations. If you look closely, they actually have more in common with their peers than differences
Remember, people with disabilities are PEOPLE FIRST.
Empower them to succeed!
“You don’t know what anyone is capable of until you give them the opportunity”
