Transform Your Workforce with Inclusive Talent

At The Arc Baltimore, we believe in the power of an inclusive workforce that reflects the full diversity and strength of our community. Our dedicated, well-trained employees with developmental disabilities bring unique perspectives, strong work ethics, and proven loyalty—qualities that enhance workplace culture, productivity, and innovation.

Why Hire Employees with Developmental Disabilities?

Many businesses in Greater Baltimore already employ people supported by The Arc who have become indispensable members of their teams. These employees make meaningful contributions across a broad spectrum of roles, helping companies thrive while advancing inclusion and equity in the workplace.

Our approach ensures that hiring and retaining employees with disabilities is seamless and beneficial:

Personalized Job Matching

We work closely with you to understand your specific staffing needs and identify candidates who align with your workplace culture and job requirements.

Ongoing Support at No Cost

Once hired, employees are on your payroll and receive your company benefits, while a dedicated Arc job trainer provides on-site training, coaching, and supervision at no additional cost until the employee is fully confident and capable.

Continued Connection

Our job trainers remain available for ongoing support to both employers and employees as needed.

Interns Ready to Work:

The Arc Baltimore’s internship programs offer local businesses the opportunity to create internship positions tailored to employees with disabilities. Benefits of hosting an intern include:

  • Access to a talented, underutilized workforce ready to fill your staffing needs.
  • Initial and ongoing training/coaching provided by The Arc at no cost to your business.
  • Additional work completed by interns without monetary expense.
  • Reduced recruitment costs, as internships build a pool of trained, job-ready candidates.
