The Arc of Essex County’s virtual services offer the ability to hand pick programming that suits your interests and schedule. Since there is no long-term commitment, it’s a great way to sample new activities and possibly discover a new passion. Activities are refreshed often and have included game nights, self-advocacy, cooking classes, chair yoga and more. You can utilize your individual budget to pay for services while temporarily available under the waiver. A self-pay option is also available.

Weekday Activities

Virtual Day programming is available Monday through Friday with several sessions offered throughout the day.  Exciting and engaging programming may include “Wacky World of Science”, Paint N’ Sip, Music Appreciation, and more. Built with flexibility in mind, you can register for individual classes, or a series of classes through The Arc’s monthly activity calendar.   You will engage in an immersive experience with each class lasting 30-45 minutes. Individuals can enroll anytime throughout the month.

The Arc’s virtual evening and weekend offerings have something for everyone.
