Welcome to The Arc of Larimer County

As a local chapter of The Arc, we are a nonprofit organization dedicated to creating opportunities for people with autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and other intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) so that they can lead full and satisfying lives in their communities. The Arc is there to provide direct advocacy, resources, education and community that empower people to achieve their dreams.

Mission Statement

The Arc of Larimer County protects the rights of individuals with developmental disabilities through advocacy and education.

Vision Statement

Our vision is that people with developmental disabilities in Larimer County make their own life choices and that their voices will be heard and respected. Individuals with developmental disabilities are included in every aspect of community life as respected, contributing, successful, and equal community members.

This includes: choices for paid employment, supported inclusive education, community-wide social, religious or spiritual, and recreational activities.
