PARC is one of 50 chapters of NYSARC, a 501(c) (3) not- for- profit organization, and is at the forefront in providing advocacy and programming for children and adults with developmental disabilities within the geographic region of northern Westchester and Putnam County.  PARC’s mission is to create and provide lifelong opportunities for people with disabilities in order for them to achieve success. In 1954, PARC was established through the efforts of ten families who sought services for their children who were not protected by legislation ensuring equal education. In 1972, PARC served twelve adults and thirteen children with a total budget of $25,000 and became a major player in the de-institutionalization process.

PARC's extensive services include Residential Programs, Comprehensive Developmental, Special Education Preschool and related Therapeutic Services, Day Habilitation, Vocational Rehabilitation, Vocational Preparation, Work Readiness, Community Based Vocational Education, Community Employment, Clinic Services, Educational Advocacy, Case Management, Traumatic Brain Injury Network, Guardianship, In-Home Residential Habilitation, Respite Programs and Self Advocacy Groups.
