WHO BENEFITS?

The ARC of Essex County is a non-profit agency serving 1300 individuals with developmental disabilities in 47 distinct programs in and around Essex County, New Jersey. For over 60 years, The ARC of Essex County has supported individuals from birth through senior years to live fuller, more satisfying lives.

The mission of The ARC of Essex County is to leave no avenue unexplored in the effort to enable those who have mental retardation to realize individual goals and to learn, work, play and coexist with dignity and full partnership in the community. The ARC believes that the fabric of our society is enriched by all of us in different ways. Those of us with mental retardation are simply different, not lesser threads in that fabric. Because we believe this, The ARC provides direct service to these with developmental disabilities and their families and acts as an advocate by advancing their interests.

It is through our mission that we pledge to make a better tomorrow a reality today.
