Applicants are submitting proposals to address a variety of areas for individuals with disabilities including safety and well-being, employment, technology, housing, transportation or socialization. The Changing Lives Fund at Northeast Arc, established with a $1 million gift by Steven P. Rosenthal, will award up to $200,000 to the winning proposals.
