What is the Community Connection Hub?
The Community Connection Hub will be located next to The Arc of South Carolina's headquarters in Lexington. This will be a dedicated space for connection, learning, and inclusion.
It will include:
-
Room for family and community events
-
Opportunities for peer-to-peer support and mentoring
-
Access to educational materials and resources
-
Training and workshops on topics like future planning, digital literacy, and emergency preparedness
-
A calm environment for people to gather, learn, and grow together
Why This Hub Matters
Too often, families and individuals affected by disabilities feel isolated or overwhelmed. Services are scattered, and support can be hard to find. The Community Connection Hub will change that.
Here, people will walk in and immediately feel seen, supported, and connected. This Hub is about dignity, inclusion, and building a community where every person has the opportunity to thrive.
"I wish something like this had existed when we were starting out. It would've changed everything."
