Our Board of Directors
ACL’s Board of Directors includes up to 15 volunteer members, including self advocates with intellectual developmental disabilities (IDD) and family members of children and adults with IDD. The Board guides our organization by overseeing finances, supporting fundraising, reviewing spending, and helping plan for the future.
Board members ensure ACL stays aligned with The Arc of the United States and focused on our mission. They serve on committees, attend an annual retreat, and contribute financially to support ACL’s sustainability. Each board term lasts three years, with the option to serve up to two consecutive terms.
ACL’s Executive Director manages the organization’s day-to-day operations and provides monthly updates to the Board.
Meetings
Board meetings are open to the public and generally held on the first Tuesday of each month, 6pm-8pm. Meetings are held on Zoom.

We are a tax-exempt organization, which means we don’t pay federal taxes. Each year, we file a report with the IRS to share details about our mission, programs, and finances. This helps the IRS and the public understand how we operate.
