COVID-19 Resources for People With Disabilities, Families, and Service Providers
The Arc is greatly concerned about the threat of COVID-19 to people with disabilities, their families, and the workforce that supports them. We are compiling resources to help people with intellectual and /or developmental disabilities (I/DD), their families, and service providers to understand this global pandemic.
The Arc’s Response to COVID-19 and Plans for the Future
While we battle COVID-19, we must also plan for the future and the challenges ahead. In the wake of this health emergency and economic crisis, we need to organize and advocate more than ever before. Attend our upcoming Town Hall to learn about The Arc’s response to the pandemic, the progress we’ve made, and the threats that remain. We will also unveil the new Strategic Framework for the Future of The Arc.
