ABOUT US
Since 1970, The Arc of DFW Area has grown from a local town hall gathering to a driving force for advocacy and support for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities across the DFW Metroplex.
With deep roots in community-driven change, we remain an all-volunteer, membership-led organization committed to our original mission.
