JARC, a Metro Detroit-
based nonprofit agency 
that serves individuals with 
developmental disabilities, 
hosted its first Accessible Field 
Day on May 25 for the people 
it serves with the help of 
student members from Farber 
Hebrew Day School’s Girls on 
the Run Club. 
Five stations of various 
activities were organized by the 
15 students to enjoy alongside 
JARC persons served. 
Girls on the Run is an 
after-school program for 

students from third to fifth 
grade that inspires girls to be 
joyful, healthy and confident 
using a fun, experience-based 
curriculum that creatively 
integrates running. 
The Accessible Field Day 
was held at a JARC home 
immediately following school 
and was attended by 13 JARC 
persons served. After the 
activities were complete, the 
students and JARC persons 
served enjoyed a pizza party, 
popsicles, and time for talking 
and making connections.
