Membership

Membership

Our Annual Membership Meetings are generally held the first Thursday in November. Invitations are mailed out to all current members.

Our membership combined with The Arc of Colorado and The Arc of the US create a powerful voice in the country to promote the rights of persons with developmental disabilities. People with developmental disabilities and their families represent less than 1.5% of the general population so it's important to band together in order to offer a powerful voice. The larger our membership, the more attention is paid to what we say--it's as simple as that.
