🎳 The Arc Ontario & The Arc Wayne are rolling into 2026 by launching a Special Olympics Training Club! Starting in March, we'll be partnering with The Arc Ontario to field a bowling team- and we’re looking for coaches and volunteers to help make it happen.

There is little time to spare (get it? spare?). If you are in Wayne County and are interested in learning more or volunteering, email Erinne Abate at Erinne.Abate@arcwayne.org.

Our neighbors in Ontario County can email Abigail Codding at acodding@thearcontario.org.

Earlier this month, we had the privilege of attending the New York State Alliance For Children with Special Needs presentation.

This is an annual, state-wide, in-person event held in Albany, NY. With major takeaways being on advocacy for early-intervention and the importance of cultivating the right setting for learners, the lessons learned in Albany will be the building blocks of future successes in providing the best services possible for our youth with disabilities. ❤️
