The Arc of Amador and Calaveras is a nonprofit organization serving people with developmental disabilities*. We are leaders in the provision of Supported Employment; Supported Living; and Community Based Day Program Services in California. We have a long history of hiring only the best people in order to provide the best possible services.

The Arc of Amador and Calaveras has been CARF accredited since 1990. We are the only CARF accredited organization in Amador and Calaveras Counties. (CARF stands for Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. It is the premier accreditation organization for disability services in North America.)

*Developmental disabilities include mental retardation, cerebral palsy, autism, epilepsy, and other neurological handicaps.  (Mental retardation is described as "slowed, or delayed, development or progress". People with this diagnosis sometimes have to work harder and longer to acquire certain skills.)
