Registration will open the first week of January 2025.
The annual Joint Legislative & Advocacy Forum provides access to information on the 2025-26 Executive Budget proposal, upcoming legislation, advocacy strategies, and opportunities to engage leadership in the Senate and Assembly.
Every day, Chapter staff are doing the work to make our mission of providing people with intellectual, developmental, and other disabilities the ordinary and extraordinary opportunities of life a reality. The Arc New York shares stories from our Chapters and messages from the organization in our CONNECTIONS newsletter to celebrate those efforts and demonstrate how our mission is being realized across the state.
After more than a decade of underfunding, the system of services and supports New Yorkers with disabilities rely on is in crisis. Investment in our field is critical to ensure quality supports are available today and sustained into the future
