Fletcher Tilton PC – Attorneys at Law attended The Arc of Massachusetts event, “70 Years of Progress: Advocacy, Empowerment, and The Arc of Massachusetts” on Thursday at The Verve in Natick.
For 70 years, The Arc of MA has banded together with advocates, families, public officials, human service agencies, and friends to enhance the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and autism. During the time so much has changed and improved, as society has moved from institutions and segregation to inclusion and opportunities. Today, the 200,000 MA residents living with IDD have more opportunities to lead full lives in the community than ever before. Thousands have worked tirelessly to reach this milestone, but progress was not fast nor easy.
At the event, speakers examined the history of disability policy and advocacy. Fletcher Tilton congratulates The Arc for this amazing milestone, and looks forward to supporting their efforts through our partnership and collaborations.
