The Arc Network

The Arc Network, a program of The Arc of Indiana, is a statewide network of Family Advocates and Self-Advocates, working throughout the state to provide information, resources and advocacy to families and people with intellectual and other developmental disabilities.

Family Advocates and Self-Advocates include parents of persons with disabilities of all ages, self-advocates with a variety of experiences and ages, and siblings of persons with disabilities.

The Arc Network is a local resource to:

• Provide information on home and community-based services, including Medicaid Waivers.
• Provide information to residents of nursing homes on programs and supports available to help them move to the community.
• Help connect people with local self-advocacy groups.
• Assist in the development and promotion of consumer participation in self directed care and FSSA quality assurance outcome measures.

For information and assistance on programs and services for children and adults with intellectual and other developmental disabilities, contact an Arc Network advocate in your area – We're Here to Help.
