"ARRM provides invaluable resources to organizations that support people with disabilities throughout Minnesota.  Wingspan Life Resources has been a member of ARRM for more than 20 years.  Many of our employees are involved on various committees and interact with ARRM staff on a regular basis.  We have always found the staff to be helpful and dedicated to their mission.

Their legislative expertise and knowledge is exceptional. ARRM staff work diligently advocating for people with disabilities and those who care for them.  They not only educate the legislators about issues affecting our industry, but they also educate our staff on how to contact their legislators to express their beliefs about what is important for the people they care for.

The association also provides valuable educational resources for its member agencies. An excellent conference is held each spring, offering informative sessions for all of our staff.  They also offer trainings throughout the year on topics and issues that are relevant and timely for our industry. Our staff always look forward to attending ARRM trainings, and coming back to their work with new tools and information to help them deliver services to people with disabilities.

Networking with colleagues from other member organizations is another valuable tool that ARRM encourages and engages in. ARRM staff believe in collaborating with its member agencies and assists the members to work with other organizations to reach their goals and missions. 

At Wingspan we are grateful for all that ARRM provides for us as members and we are proud to be part of such a professionally run and innovative member organization."

Executive Director, Wingspan Life Resources
