Any of the services that people enjoy today is a direct result of decades of advocacy and support. All funding of intellectual and developmental disabilities services, from day programs to employment to social security, come from a government source and are directed by state and federal legislation. OPARC remains a strong voice on behalf of people with IDD and we encourage everyone to join us in helping the voices of this vulnerable population to be heard.
