March 1, 2023 – The staff at BCArc are inspiring. We recently opened a new residential program for individuals with brain injury, and launched a program to support families who need extra time after work. It is the drive and initiative of BCArc’s staff — its future leaders — that make these new programs possible.

This Agency is structured to provide clear career paths for staff to grow and advance. Ideally we want to retain our staff for a meaningful and lifelong career. Last year alone we promoted 49 employees. We have more than 40 employees who have been with BCArc 20-plus years, and 130 employees over 10 years. Those stats tell a powerful and positive story about the staff at BCArc. I started at BCArc in a residential program and took advantage of the career path and opportunities for advancement that BCArc offers.

Because of our committed, determined staff, we are well-positioned to serving the growing disability population for generations to come.
