The Arc Montgomery County is a leading local provider of services to individuals and families affected by intellectual and developmental disabilities.  Each year, more than 4,000 people contact us for child care and education, work skills training, employment, community living services, resources, advocacy and respite care.

Besides the membership benefits you will receive, you will be part of a movement that for more than a half century has worked to ensure every member of our community is valued for his or her unique abilities and talents.

Your membership helps The Arc stand beside your children, neighbors, friends or colleagues as they strive for complete inclusion in every aspect of community life, and allows The Arc to advocate for policies and programs that change lives and protect our most vulnerable citizens.  Our strength in numbers creates positive change in your community.
