The Arc is committed to securing opportunities for all people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. To this end, the organization emphasizes personal opportunities for choice in education, housing, employment, and entertainment. The Arc is further committed to reducing the incidence and limiting the consequences of disabilities through research, advocacy, and mutual support. It provides a wide variety of educational materials for parents, teachers, healthcare professionals, and others.
