- The Arc 2017 Catalyst Award Winners!
On November 3, The Arc will present the prestigious Catalyst Awards to five honorees, all of whom have made extraordinary contributions in the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD).
This year’s winners hail from a wide swath of our society, including one of the most iconic companies in the world, the cast of a hit television show, the self-advocate behind Olmstead v. LC and EW, legislators from the states of Indiana and New York, as well as one of our nation’s most prestigious law firms, all breaking ground in how society perceives people with disabilities.
