ARCA Public Webinars

California’s regional centers are a network of 21 community-based non-profits, represented by the Association of Regional Center Agencies (ARCA). The regional centers coordinate services for, and advocate on behalf of, nearly 400,000 Californians with developmental disabilities.

In mid-2021, the ARCA Board of Directors approved a plan to begin a series of public webinars to inform the public about regional center services and ways in which centers can help people with developmental disabilities, and their families, better achieve their goals and thrive in their communities.

All materials from those webinars will be hosted at this page.
