Our Mission
We Serve. We Support. We Advocate.
The Arc of the Piedmont Tri-County exists to serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families by connecting them to resources, providing support during times of need, strengthening their ability to advocate for themselves, and advancing communities where people with disabilities can live with dignity, opportunity, and belonging.
We believe that when a person or family is struggling, our responsibility does not end with a referral.
We listen. We connect. We advocate.
We do not look away when there is a need.
Why We Exist
Support Should Not Stop at Information.
Families affected by disability often navigate systems that are fragmented, confusing, expensive, and difficult to access.
The Arc of the Piedmont Tri-County exists to help close those gaps.
Resources
We connect individuals and families with trusted local, state, and national resources.
Advocacy
We help people understand their rights, use their voices, and influence the systems and policies that affect their lives.
Our Commitment
People With Disabilities and Their Families Deserve More.
We believe in dignity.
We believe in self-determination.
We believe people with disabilities should help lead the decisions that affect their lives.
We believe families deserve clear information and meaningful support.
We believe communities have a responsibility to care for one another.
And we believe that when someone tells us they are struggling, we do not look away.
