Puberty happens whether we're ready or not — and questions about bodies, boundaries, dating, and safety are a normal part of growing up. But for many individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and the people who support them, guidance on these topics is hard to find.

Join us for a FREE webinar with sexuality educator and author Ariel Davis, MPH, CSE, and walk away with practical, trauma-informed strategies to navigate these conversations with confidence and compassion.

Perfect for caregivers, family members, self-advocates, educators, and professionals.

Tuesday, September 9 from 12:30–1:30 PM on Zoom

It's official: the party of the season is here, and everyone's invited. The Independence Belongs to Everyone Gala is happening Saturday, November 7th at the Hilton McLean Tysons Corner — and early access tickets are on sale NOW!

Independence means something different for everyone — but at its heart, it's the freedom to make your own decisions and shape your own life. That's what we're celebrating: great food, great people, and a cause worth dressing up for, because every ticket helps people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families across Northern Virginia live life on their own terms.

Early access tickets are just $225, but only until October 1st — then prices go up. Lock in yours now at https://thearcofnova.org/gala/ and get ready for an unforgettable night.

The League of Women Voters - Fairfax Area is hosting a forum on Monday, August 31 at 8 PM, where experts will break down the three constitutional amendments on Virginia's ballot this November.

Why it matters to our community: The third amendment addresses the restoration of voting rights and includes disability-specific language that's important for people with disabilities and their families to understand.

We are proud to partner in this non-partisan event, and we encourage everyone to tune in!
