The Arc of Tippecanoe County

We are pleased to announce that our website is getting a makeover, update, refresh- it is in for BIG changes. We will be adding information and making it more user friendly.

I updated the Resource Section today- check it out. If something is missing that you have found helpful- email me at director@arcoftippecanoe.org . We want this page to be the place to come for resources for self advocates and families.

Thanks to Purdue for their wonderful dedicated students who are putting so much time into this project. Watch for Videos about The Tippy Arc and Club 53. Thank you for your patience during our construction.
