Project ARC
Project ARC is a case management system that supports, at minimum, 100 individuals with various developmental disabilities to live and work, as independently as possible, in the community. We receive referrals for services from family members, social service programs and from individuals themselves. Project ARC seeks to use private, community and individuals’ family members in an effort to provide an independent and fulfilling lifestyle for our individuals. Our individuals are charged no fees for our services. Additionally the program supports our individuals in participating in various Arc of Southwest Georgia agency events and seasonal community activities. The program continuously seeks ways to improve the independent lifestyles of our individuals.
The program advocates for, or provides directly, the following services:
- Individual assessments and development of plans specifically for each individual.
