Employment Opportunities
Are you passionate about supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities? Consider a career with The Arc of North Carolina.
Founded in 1953, we are the oldest and largest I/DD advocacy and service organization in the state. The Arc is committed to creating a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
Our Chapters
We have many local chapters across the state.
Because chapters across the state focus on issues of concern in their respective regions, programs and services vary. If there is not a local chapter in your area, you can still be a part of The Arc. Joining a chapter at the local level automatically enrolls a person as a member of The Arc of North Carolina and The Arc of the United States.
Membership in a local chapter offers families of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) a support structure as well as access to needed services. Membership is also open to professionals in the field of developmental disabilities, self-advocates, and to people interested in promoting the rights of people with IDD.
Our Regional Office Locations
The Arc of NC has five regional offices and one office dedicated to our housing division. From the western NC mountains to the eastern coastline, we have you covered!
