Improving Quality of Life for Children, Youth & Adults
The Arc of Dallas is a 501(c)(3) membership nonprofit organization whose mission is to improve the quality of life for people with intellectual and related developmental disabilities. It was formed in 1951 by a group of parents who joined forces to fight for their children’s rights to be educated in the public school system. The Arc of today still serves as a voice in the local, state and national community.
