Advocacy Efforts

The Arc of Southington provides information, referral, and education to families and the community, as well as planning and facilitating individual advocacy, systems advocacy, and legislative advocacy. Most of the services we provide are free.

We also work in concert with The Arc Connecticut on legislative issues pertaining to the rights of people with I/DD and protecting the “safety net” of State funding to our providers.

The Arc Connecticut is an advocacy organization committed to protecting the rights of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and to promoting opportunities for their full inclusion in their communities. To learn more about The Arc of Connecticut visit their website.
