Thanks to a grant approved by The Community Foundation-Northeast Connecticut Women & Girls Fund in the amount of $1,750, The Arc Quinebaug Valley will be able to once again continue a curriculum of classes on Positive Choices & Healthy Relationships for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Representatives from The Arc accepting these grant funds were Mrs. Susan Desrosiers, Executive Director & Judy Daviau, chief operating officer.
“The Community Foundation-Northeast Connecticut Women & Girls Fund continues to make a difference at The Arc Quinebaug Valley and we cannot thank them enough for all of their support.  Promoting healthy relationships and reducing domestic violence are important factors in our Positive Choices & Healthy Relationships program, as it will allow individuals with disabilities the opportunity to understand their own boundaries, bodies and relationships at a deeper level.” said Desrosiers.
