The Arc of Dane County

The Arc-Dane County will work to create opportunities for children and adults with developmental disabilities to reach their full potential by creating acceptance, respect and participation in the community through advocacy, education and information. We accomplish this by encouraging active participation of membership, gaining support of communities and collaborating with appropriate local, state, and national groups.

Our Work:

• We work to assist people with disabilities and their families in solving common problems and meeting the many challenges that face children, young adults, and senior citizens with disabilities.

• We seek to enhance public awareness and understanding of people with disabilities.

• We work to inform our members and others of vital issues that might affect access to education, training, employment or social opportunities.

• We create important opportunities for families and others involved in the lives of people with disabilities to learn from and help each other.
