The Arc of San Diego | East County Training Center

About Us

East County Training Center strives to serve the best interests of each individual we have the privilege of supporting. From individuals just transitioning from the public education system to individuals enjoying their ''retirement'' years, we strive to ensure the best experience possible for each of the 125 clients we currently serve.

The Arc of San Diego, a private, not-for-profit corporation, is one of the region's largest human service agencies. We provide an extensive array of services to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities in San Diego County. Founded in 1951, by a determined group of parents and other community members who were concerned about the lack of services available for children with disabilities, The Arc of San Diego blends a long history of service with a national reputation for success. Today, we are guided by the same sense of purpose and dedication that inspired those parents over 70 years ago.

The Arc provides services for persons with disabilities at more than 20 locations throughout the county. Through our programs we are able to offer support to people with disabilities in living independent and fulfilling lives. We stand by our belief that people with disabilities have unlimited potential and the right to equality of opportunity.
