ABOUT THE ARC OF CUMBERLAND AND PERRY COUNTIES

The lack of services for people with disabilities led a group of parents to band together in 1953 to form The Arc of Cumberland and Perry Counties (CPARC). For decades, children and adults with disabilities were systematically denied educational opportunities, vocational training jobs, housing, and almost every other right and service that people without disabilities took for granted. Today, our staff continues to advocate for people with disabilities; offer tools and training to help families; and ensure that individuals live, work, and play in their community. We would not be able to achieve our mission to empower, inspire, and educate people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, their families, and the community without our staff. Here at CPARC, we have a team-oriented culture where we work together and treat each other like family. Because we value the input of each employee, we have an open-door policy. We also offer top compensation and benefits.
