The Arc of Harris County

Equity and access for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to be included in their community.

We provide community outreach, education, and awareness on behalf of the disability community to families, schools, businesses, adult services organizations, and other community organizations.

We participate in national, state, and local legislative and systems advocacy to ensure that children with disabilities have access to a free, appropriate education in the least restrictive environment; and that adults with disabilities have access to community-based supports.

We support the structure and cohesion of families who have members with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

We provide life-enhancing integrated activities and experiences for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
