The Arc Arapahoe, Douglas & Elbert Counties is a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that, since 1955, had been dedicated to providing advocacy, information, and support to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and their families.

We believe in what Congress stated in the Reauthorization of the Rehabilitation Act: …”disability is a natural part of the human experience and in no way diminishes the rights of individuals to live independently, enjoy self-determination, make choices, contribute to society, pursue meaningful careers, and enjoy full inclusion and integration in the economic, political social, cultural and educational mainstream of American society”.

As a local chapter of The Arc of the United States, a nationwide organization of 140,000 parents, consumers and professionals in the field, we are active in pursuing services and supports that promote the rights and welfare of people with disabilities.
