Arc of Westchester was established in 1949 as a day school for children with developmental disabilities in New York State. Throughout its history, the organization has grown to encompass more than 800 employees providing approximately 2,000 individuals throughout the county with a broad range of innovative and effective programs and services designed to foster independence, productivity and participation in community life. Arc of Westchester’s services are based on a lifelong continuum of care and provide the support needed to achieve a life full of distinction and happiness. The organization focuses on individual choice, future planning, and community inclusion as a basis for its service support.

“Arc of Westchester is looking forward to working with Co-Communications on a number of new initiatives aimed to expand and educate the community about who we are and how important our services are to individuals and their families in Westchester County,” said Richard P.
