Did you know that volunteering is more inclusive than ever?

Many organizations (including The Arc!) create opportunities for people with disabilities to give back, connect, and lead.

Giving isn’t just seasonal — it’s empowering year-round! 💫

The rights of children with disabilities are under threat — jeopardizing decades of progress.

Call or email your elected officials to tell them to stand up for the rights and protections for students with disabilities – and demand that the Senate and House conduct an oversight hearing about threats to special education.

🍬👻🦇Fun Fact Friday!
A few small tweaks can make Halloween accessible for kids and adults with disabilities. 🎃

Some decorations—like strobe lights, loud sound effects, or tricky stairs—can make trick-or-treating hard for kids with disabilities. Small tweaks, like giving treats from the bottom of the stairs or skipping flashing lights, can make the night spook-tacular for all!

🧙‍♀️Halloween should be fun for everyone! 🧛
