Description

A Team NV was established in 2015 as a 501c3 and affiliated with The Arc of the United States in 2021. Since then, A Team NV does business as The Arc of Nevada. Led by volunteers and families with a child that has a disability, the organization has held training events for individuals with disabilities on how to advocate for themselves and speak up for issues that are important to them and brought them to Carson City and Washington DC to tell their stories. The Arc of Nevada is currently working on implementing Early Intervention that will provide therapies to children age birth to 3 years old who have a qualifying delay. The Arc of Nevada also holds monthly education workshops on topics important to those with a disability and social activities for young adults with a disability to meet and engage with others with a disability.
