Advocacy is essential to protecting the rights, dignity, and opportunities of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. At The Arc Mid-Hudson, we speak up because public policy decisions affect access to services, education, employment, housing, health care, and inclusion in community life.
We want to ensure that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families are seen, heard, and supported. We believe every person deserves the opportunity to live a full life in the community, and that strong advocacy helps protect the services and resources that make that possible.
When laws, funding, and public policy are at stake, your voice matters. By taking action together, we can raise awareness, influence decision-makers, and help build a more inclusive future for people with disabilities and their families.
Sign up to receive advocacy emails from The Arc Mid-Hudson and be the first to know when action is needed. We’ll share updates on important issues, opportunities to contact elected officials, and ways you can help support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in our community.
