The Arc's Special Quest Saturday Program visited Rohsler's Allendale Nursery for some fall fun! It was quintessential autumn weather—sunny and crisp! Participants rode a hayride through the Halloween-decorated grounds of Rohsler's, making a stop to say hello to the friendly farm animals, walk through a maze, and pick their very own pumpkins. After the hayride, participants enjoyed a cold, refreshing glass of apple cider paired with a delicious apple cider donut! The folks at Rohsler's were so kind, helpful, and patient with our group and we couldn't have asked for a better trip to welcome autumn!

Equal Justice Talks Webinar Series Thursday, October 23, 2025 - 12:00–1:00 PM (EST)
After the Sentence: Reentry Realities for People with IDD - "Opening Doors: Fair Chance Hiring and Inclusive Employment for Justice-Involved People with IDD"

REGISTER: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN__Mo9Sl6wQtyokcJM_Gmt7A #/registration

Every reentry story deserves a fair start. Yet for many individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who have been involved in the justice system, meaningful employment remains out of reach—blocked by stigma, systemic bias, and complex benefit barriers.

This timely session spotlights actionable strategies for opening doors to opportunity. Dr. Matt Saleh of Cornell University will explore evidence-based fair chance hiring practices, inclusive employer engagement, and benefits planning approaches that can transform reentry outcomes for people with IDD.

Attendees will gain a sharper understanding of how justice, disability, and employment policy intersect and how professionals across law, rehabilitation, and human services can work together to build equitable pathways to work and community life.

Key takeaways:
• Proven models for employer engagement and fair chance hiring
• Practical guidance on work incentives and benefits planning for people with IDD
• Insights on cross-sector collaboration among justice, legal, and disability systems

The Arc of Bergen and Passaic Counties is joining The Arc of New Jersey on Monday October 27th 6:30pm-8:00Pm for Medicaid Monday. Learn about the Programs and Services offered by The Arc of Bergen and Passaic Counties and hear an overview of SSI and Medicaid from Conor Griffin, Director of Health Care Advocacy at The Arc of New Jersey.
Register Here: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_HrHsAde6Q5aRtQH8x-W-ng #/registration

This event is designed to help families like navigate the often confusing world of Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
At Medicaid Monday, you’ll gain valuable insights into:
• How to apply for Medicaid and SSI
• Eligibility requirements
• Why Medicaid is essential for accessing services through the New Jersey Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD)
One of the key topics we’ll focus on is the importance of applying for SSI at age 18. Doing so can make your loved one automatically eligible for Medicaid, opening the door to critical supports and services.
This event is part of The Arc’s broader health care advocacy efforts to ensure individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) have access to the care and assistance they need to thrive.
Whether you’re new to the process or looking for clarification, Medicaid Monday is here to help you feel more confident and informed.
We hope you’ll join us!
