“A Life Like Yours” Benefit Breakfast
7th annual event celebrates Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month.
Join us for The Arc of Northern Virginia’s seventh “A Life Like Yours” Benefit Breakfast to raise important funds to sustain and strengthen vital programs, services, and advocacy for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. You’ll hear first-hand from self-advocates and parents about the challenges faced and how The Arc of Northern Virginia has made a difference.
The event takes place on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, at the Hilton McLean Tysons Corner on 7920 Jones Branch Drive in McLean. A coffee reception & networking period begins at 7:30 am. The breakfast and program begin at 8:00 am, and ends promptly at 9:00 am, followed by an optional half hour set aside for networking. Though there is no cost to attend and no ticket to purchase, however, this event is a fundraiser. Our intention is that attendees will be inspired to support our work and the positive outcomes for the community when asked to make their donation to The Arc of Northern Virginia.

WHY A LIFE LIKE YOURS?
‘A Life Like Yours’ is a phrase we use to remind us that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities want the same things we all want…a home of our own, a quality education, a meaningful job or way we spend our days, and relationships we value and depend on. It’s the vision for a community-based system of supports and services that enable individuals to obtain and enjoy a quality life in the community.
People with disabilities often face many hurdles as they attempt to live their lives as fully-engaged, active members of society. Finding information and support regarding education, employment, public benefits, housing, and healthcare is often an overwhelming experience. Northern Virginia families know The Arc of Northern Virginia as the ‘go-to source’ for information, education, referrals, and support.
