Make an impact in classroom inclusion with Together We’re Better (TWB)!  Inclusive education significantly contributes to the educational experience of all students and enriches the diversity in classroom learning, providing all students expanded opportunities for a better understanding of the world, those around them, and themselves.

The Arc Maryland, along with its statewide partners, shares the TWB program with you to raise awareness of the value and importance of inclusion of students with disabilities. TWB includes a variety of resources for students, teachers, and parents alike!
