Child-centered services can transform the lives of children and families. At The Arc Central Chesapeake Region, we prioritize supporting the children, youth, and families who experience the most need, removing the barriers families face in supporting their children.

Thousands of children in our community rely on very specialized, costly support but cannot access these resources because their families cannot afford them. Every day, these families must make the difficult choice of balancing their child’s needs with their family’s financial well-being.

And that’s where you come in – for kids with disabilities in your community, the Family Fund is one of the only resources they can turn to because the Family Fund helps parents pay for things insurance won’t cover. All kids deserve access to the resources they need, and your support of the Family Fund creates greater equity for kids with disabilities in your community.

The Because of You is a collection of stories that show the incredible impact you’ve made over the last year.
