Our Campus

In 2020, The Arc of Washington County launched its first capital campaign to renovate buildings on campus. With strong leadership and immense community support, the organization raised over $6 million to invest in the organization’s campus as well as launch an endowment campaign to ensure the organization continues to thrives. 

Our campus is brimming with excitement and joy. If you are interested in touring our campus and seeing firsthand what is happening, please complete our tour interest form.

The right side of our campus is our administrative office which also houses our training room and board room.

The biggest renovation was transforming this space from a warehouse style Day Program to a Meaningful Day space where people supported can enjoy art, fitness equipment, computer room, shared dining space, individual activity rooms, and Employment Service office.

Stepping Stones

There is a special space on campus serving youth with autism in an after school and summer day program. The Community Foundation of Washington County granted the organization funds to create a sensory room in this program space.

Walking Path

We are committed to supporting wellness throughout the organization. On campus we have a walking path through the wooden space behind our buildings. Through the Washington County Office of Grants, The Arc Washington County received a grant to pave this path to make it more accessible to the community served at The Arc Washington County.

Capital Campaign Donors

These transformational spaces would not be possible without the commitment from the community. Please join us in thanking our 2020 Capital Campaign Donors.
