The Arc of Southeast Iowa Supply Needs!
Momentous changes are happening at The Arc! Our Bill Reagan Children’s Center has been fully remodeled and is now enrolling more children 0-5 years! With our remodeled Center, the lower level now houses our school-aged children’s programming! With this move, we split combined resources for Children’s programming and our adult Day Habilitation program. Please help us fill our programming needs for both Children and Adult programming.
Items can be dropped off at our main office location:
