About

The Arc of Florida

The Arc of Florida is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to improve the quality of life for persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We work for education, awareness, research, advocacy and support of families, friends and the community.

There are many ways you can become involved and support the mission of The Arc. Membership in your local Arc Chapter provides training opportunities as well as other services to improve the quality of life for the individuals we serve. You can directly contribute through our website. The Arc US also accepts memberships and overall supports the work of The Arc.


Please note: We are not affiliated with the Human Arc. We do not process claims for Social Security Disability.
