Youth Group
The Arc's Youth Group was developed so that students with intellectual or developmental disabilities, aged 12 to 21, and their student peers without disabilities can participate together in fun, social and recreational activities. At least one activity per month is scheduled from October through March. The students have enjoyed such activities as the Fort Bend County Fair, Texian Market Days, picnics, flying kites, fishing, dance lessons, treasure hunts at First Colony Mall, billiards, a Christmas Party and a Mardi Gras party, going to a high school football game, movies and bowling. Parents/caregivers are responsible for transportation to and from activities. Any fees associated with the activity are also the parents' responsibility, although every effort is made to organize events that have minimal costs. For more information on The Arc's Youth Group, call Cheryl Sewell at 281-494-5924. Parents need to complete the YOUTH GROUP Student Information Form in order for their child to be able to participate.
