ARC Association for Real Change is a UK membership organisation, which supports providers of services to people with a learning disability to promote real change.〔(ARC Website )〕〔(Mencap Website )〕 ] ==History== ARC was founded in 1976 as the Association of Residential Communities for the Retarded. For a brief period of time it looked as if 'mental retardation' would come over from the United States as the new terminology to replace 'mental handicap' which was unpopular. However, that did not happen and the term 'learning disability' was adopted by the Department of Health (after much debate and some disagreement which continues to today because the term 'learning disability' has a different meaning in the education world). ARC quickly shortened its name to the Association for Residential Communities and then later to the Association for Residential Care. The most recent change reflects the major policy changes in social care in that ARC (which is how it is known) now stands for The Association for Real Change. ARC was incorporated as a registered charity in 1982.〔(Charity Commission )〕 In 1992 the ARC Training Consortium was set up to support members who wanted to increase their own NVQ assessor/verifier capacity and to enable their staff to gain the appropriate NVQs. ARC is also a member of The Learning Disability Coalition, a group of learning disability organisations that have come together in 2007 to form one group and one voice.〔(Learning Disability Coalition )〕 it is also a founding member of the Care Provider Alliance which is an alliance of 11 leading umbrella bodies in social care in the UK.
