The Arc Of Burlington County

The Arc of Burlington County is a non-profit organization founded in 1956 by a group of parents who got together, realized how few services were available for their children with developmental disabilities, and decided to do something about it. They formed the Burlington County Unit for Retarded Children, which later became The Burlington County Unit of the New Jersey Association for Retarded Citizens, and, in 1998, officially The Arc of Burlington County.We’re affiliated with The Arc of the United States, the largest organization nationwide dedicated to improving the lives of children and adults with mental retardation and other disabilities, and with The Arc of New Jersey with its strong advocacy and governmental liaison roles.
