Since 1974, the continued commitment of our organization has been to educate, motivate and encourage the intellectually and developmentally disabled community of Nassau County. The Arc Nassau has helped meet the needs of adults with disabilities by providing programs and services that support their active participation in all aspects of life. 

The Arc Nassau is a local, nonprofit agency providing programs and services for individuals with developmental disabilities who are 18 years and older. The Arc Nassau primarily services individuals with Downs Syndrome, cerebral palsy, autism, spina bifida, Prader-Willi syndrome and varied mental challenges. 

Maximizing an individual’s independence at home and in the community is The Arc Nassau’s fundamental focus. Our caring staff provide each individual’s support program to meet the needs and wishes of our program participants.
