The Arc New York’s 75th Anniversary Gala!
What started as a three-line ad placed by a mother in The New York Post has evolved into the largest provider of services for people with I/DD in the state — and the system of community supports we know today. Join us as we celebrate 75 years of history advocating and providing support for New Yorkers with disabilities
Tell State Leaders: Invest in I/DD Services!
After more than a decade of underfunding, the system of services and supports New Yorkers with disabilities rely on is in crisis. Investment in our field is critical to ensure quality supports are available today and sustained into the future
Sponsors & Funders
The Arc promotes and protects the human rights of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and actively supports their full inclusion and participation in the community throughout their lifetimes.
