Accessing Services
Based in Lexington, NC, The Arc of Davidson County recognizes the inherent rights of all people to participate fully in communities of their choosing.

Founded on the principles that all people must have equal access to all opportunities, we advocate with and for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and their families.
