The Arc's Vision for the Future It is our vision to be the best at supporting people with disabilities and their families in their everyday quest for the freedom to make choices about their lives and the services they receive.
The future we envision is one where all people with disabilities are fully included as members of a community that embraces the diversity of all people, and values individuals for who they are in a safe and caring environment.

Newsflash
Homeownership Resources for New Yorkers with Disabilities There are a number of powerful home ownership incentives available to individuals and families with developmental disabilities. The first step in accessing these programs is to establish Office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities (OMRDD) eligibility. The OMRDD application process includes completing the OMRDD Transmittal Form and attachments for submission to the Developmental Disabilities Services Offices (DDSO) intake coordinator in the county where the consumer/prospective home owner resides. For a listing of county-based DDSOs and Intake Coordinators and Transmittal Forms see: www.omr.state.ny.us/wt/forms/ Other home ownership options listed here are available through the Office of Mental Health (OMH), New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR) and the State of New York Mortgage Agency (SONYMA). |
