The Arc of Essex County is grateful to the Wallerstein Foundation for a generous $14,000 grant to support the purchase of a generator for our Terrace Avenue Group Home in West Orange.

Having a reliable backup power source is especially important in residential settings serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. A generator will help ensure that residents can remain safe and comfortable during power outages, while allowing staff to continue providing essential care and support with minimal disruption.

This investment will help strengthen the home’s emergency preparedness and provide additional peace of mind for residents, families, and staff. We extend our sincere thanks to the Wallerstein Foundation for supporting our mission.
