D. To advise and aid parents in the solution of their problems and to coordinate their efforts and activities.

E. To develop a better understanding of the problems of persons with developmental disabilities by the public;

F. To cooperate with all public, private and religious agencies and professional groups in the furtherance of these ends;

G. To associate with and support  the Arc of Indiana and Arc of the United States to promote the common cause.
