At The Arc of Essex County, we are always looking for ways to empower children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, giving each person we serve the opportunity to learn new things, discover new passions, and live their best lives.

That mission is boosted by technology that opens new worlds and makes meaningful connections. Here, smart TVs and digital projection screens can bring educational content to life, Obie tables glow with interactive group games, virtual reality headsets transport users to new domains, and two-way microphones and speakers open real-time communication across the miles. The right tools can make all the difference. At The Arc, we always push ourselves to go the extra mile, and that includes investing in the most cutting-edge equipment.

Your contribution to our 2024 Annual Appeal will empower our Arc community with these transformative innovations. Each of our program locations has a wish list of items that will broaden horizons and bring lessons to life, helping the youngest participants in Early Intervention and Stepping Stones School, the children and teens in our respite programs, and the hundreds of adults in our day programs, residential homes, and respite services. Will you help fulfill these needs by donating today?

Your commitment to improving the lives of people with IDD means so much to us and to the families we serve, and we are grateful to have you on this journey with us. Thank you for your support!
