The Arc of the United States Launches a New Website
 

The Arc of the US recently launched a new website to provide the   public with increased information and resources. People will be able to obtain a wealth of information about The Arc as well as resources on intellectual and developmental disabilities. Registered users will be able to subscribe to electronic newsletters, participate in discussion groups and have access to other features of this interactive website.

The Public Policy section will allow people to stay up-to-date on issues affecting all people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Look for “Action Alerts” in the Federal legislative Action Center on the website and do what you can to spread the word throughout your community to let your elected officials in Washington hear from your community!
