Honoring trailblazers who are making the world more inclusive for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD)

The Catalyst Awards recognize individuals and organizations that are changing how society perceives and treats people with disabilities. Each honoree has done something remarkable that helps fulfill The Arc’s mission to promote and protect the human rights of people with I/DD. Honorees are unique in their accomplishments but are unified by their tireless pursuit of inclusion.

The Catalyst Awards were established by the Arc of the United States in 2015.
The Arc of Central Nebraska is awarding people and organizations in Hall and Howard counties for the first time in 2020.
