Overview
Welcome to the Center for Advocacy and Education!
We are the newest department at The Arc of New Mexico, and are fully dedicated to supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) by providing learning opportunities, resources, and advocacy support for people to navigate choices and lead the lives they choose.
Our main office is located in Albuquerque, with community advocates spread across the state to support people throughout New Mexico.
