One goal

More opportunity for people with IDD

We see people for their possibilities.

For more than 70 years, The Arc of Wichita County has worked alongside people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.

We create places to learn, work, play, and belong — and we advocate for a community where everyone is valued.

GROWING TOGETHER

A brighter future is taking shape.

We are expanding our facilities and programs so more people in Wichita County and surrounding areas can find a place to grow.

Your support helps build the next chapter of The Arc.
