About This Cause
The Arc Pikes Peak Region (The Arc PPR) provides guardianship to 75 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and assists with guardianship information to those in need. The Arc PPR provides educational and judicial advocacy to individuals with IDD at no charge. The Arc PPR also provides advocacy to individuals who may not need guardianship, but assistance with day-to-day living. The Arc PPR's vision is a community where all individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities are embraced and respected. The Arc PPRs mission is to promote and protect the human rights of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and actively support their full inclusion and participation in the communities of the Pikes Peak region throughout their lifetimes.
