Each year at The Arc’s national Convention, there is a showcase for self-advocate entrepreneurs to showcase their small business enterprises. The Arc is now booking slots for New Orleans in 2014.
Entrepreneur Alley is a unique part of The Arc‘s Convention devoted to self-advocate entrepreneurs with microbusiness initiatives. The Arc offers highly reduced rates to encourage individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to showcase their special talents.
For those self-advocate entrepreneurs who can’t attend the National Convention in person, The Arc offers The Market as an affordable, convenient option to sell merchandise or otherwise promote microbusiness. The Market is a space set up and staffed by The Arc to allow self-advocates to ship in merchandise for sale. As part of The Market, you will be responsible for packaging, pricing and shipping your goods and The Arc will take a small portion of your sales for administrative purposes.
