ARC of Oswego County’s Parent Information Night this month for families of individuals with special needs was a great success, thanks to the contributions of many local agencies and ARC of Oswego County staff members.
Presenters from ten different agencies shared information about available recreation and respite programs, athletic opportunities, guardianship assistance, residential habilitation, advocacy groups, and more.
Parents and family members were able to ask questions about eligibility, resources, and other concerns.
