In this episode, we’re joined by Abby Morris, Executive Director of The Arc Lancaster Lebanon, an organization dedicated to empowering people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism — alongside their families — to lead full and independent lives of their own choosing. Abby shares how The Arc works to ensure that individuals with disabilities are recognized for their equal worth and included as valued members of the community. We discuss the importance of challenging stigma, breaking down barriers to inclusion, and creating environments where people with IDD and autism can thrive. Abby also highlights the organization’s guiding values—being impartial, inclusive, and informed — and how those principles shape advocacy, support, and community engagement across Lancaster and Lebanon.
