THE ARC NEW YORK
Advocacy is an essential part of our culture at The Arc Westchester. It is important not only to the people who receive services from us, but also their parents, support staff and the community at large. We are all concerned about getting the best services that are properly funded, and supported by staff who are respected and earn a living wage. Parents want to be sure that their family members have a vibrant future and are treated fairly and compassionately. None of this happens without a tremendous advocacy effort from all of us.
Let our Voice be HEARD
Please urge our state legislators to increase their investment in our workforce, acknowledging their vital role in the lives of those we care for. Your advocacy has always made a substantial impact in Albany. By clicking HERE, you can join us in appealing for a direct support wage enhancement and a 3.2% cost of living adjustment for the forthcoming 2024-2025 budget.
