History
Report
In 1952, a group of parents met to discuss expanding the opportunities available for their adult children with disabilities. Together, they started a training and education program operated out of a church basement, designed to provide meaningful activities for their loved ones. Two years later, the group was incorporated as the Lehigh County Association for Retarded Children (LARC) and hired their first executive director. In 1989, LARC changed its name to Lehigh Valley Association of Rehabilitation Centers.
