About The Arc of Burlington County
The Arc of Burlington County is a non-profit organization founded in 1956 by a group of parents who realized how few services were available for their children with developmental disabilities and decided to do something about it. They formed the Burlington County Unit for Retarded Children, which later became The Burlington County Unit of the New Jersey Association for Retarded Citizens, and, in 1998, officially, The Arc of Burlington County.
