The Arc’s Annual Business Meeting will be held at our National Convention in Portland, Oregon, November 18 – 20.

At this year’s business meeting, chapters will have the opportunity to vote on amendments to The Arc’s bylaws, amendments to the standard terms and conditions of affiliation, and the next slate of officers. Your chapter does not have to be at the meeting in person to vote. All voting will be conducted online. If you have questions on the process, please contact Katey Vale, vale@thearc.org.
