By creating an Oral Health Awareness Day and dental office open house, The Arc of Luzerne Co created a successful two-part model to help identify and assist dental professionals in creating a disability-friendly culture within their practice.

Operation House Call makes families and individuals with IDD the instructors teaching medical professionals’ essential skills to enhance the health care of individuals with IDD. The program centers around an experiential learning opportunity – a two-hour home visit to a family with a child with IDD.

Two online modules for nursing/medical students that provide case studies and practical tools regarding the health of people with IDD and how to better communicate better with patients.

 A series of four online courses developed AUCD and The Arc that overview competencies that public health programs should include to ensure that people with IDD are included in programs.

This webinar reviews the aging process and discusses what successful aging looks like for people with IDD.
