A local non-profit organization will receive recognition from the Butler County Chamber of Commerce at an event this week.
The ARC of Butler County has been chosen as the 17th Community Champion for its impact on the Butler community.
A luncheon in connection with this award will take place Wednesday beginning at 11:30 a.m. at Diamond Park in Downtown Butler. There is no fee to attend but reservations to the Chamber are requested.
The Arc of Butler County has a rich history of advocacy for adults as well as right-to-education for preschool and public school-aged children. This organization continues to provide assistance for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities through the Community Living Arrangement Program.
