The mission of the Association for the Rights of Citizens with handicaps is to empower children and adults with disabilities to reach their full potential and to increase prevention and awareness in the community. ARCh was founded in 1952 by parents who dreamed of a world where their children with disabilities would not be discarded or disregarded. Today we remain focused on our vision of building a world where all people are valued and encouraged to contribute. ARCh promotes the health, safety and achievement of children and adults with disabilities.

Because of ARCh

  • Parents' anxiety is reduced
  • Adults with disabilities become more independent
  • Families have peace of mind for the future
  • Teens learn to be leaders
  • Adults with disabilities build self-confidence and develop life skills
  • Our communities are safer
  • Lives and money are saved

ARCh offers one-of-a-kind programs that make a difference, like:

  • ARCh Camp Pow Wow
  • Teen Time
  • Parent resources & workshops
  • ARCh Youth Team (teen leadership program)
  • Disability awareness presentations
  • IEP Advocacy
