The ARC of Martin County, Advocates for the Rights of the Challenged, is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to helping individuals with developmental disabilities achieve an improved quality of life. We accomplish this through education, awareness, advocacy and, most importantly, through the support of our community.

The people we assist and support are children and adults with mental retardation, autism, Down's Syndrome, cerebral palsy, and other related developmental disabilities. The ARC's mission is to empower children and adults to achieve their fullest potential through residential, vocational, educational, behavioral and other healthcare services.

Incorporated in 1956, ARC of Martin County provides supports and assistance to over 230 children and adults with disabilities and employs over 80 healthcare, educational, and other related professionals.
