MORRIS COUNTY — ArcMorris, the leading nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities throughout Morris County, has named Joseph (Joe) Mancini as its new chief executive officer.
Mancini has more than two decades of experience in nonprofit leadership, including in senior positions within The Arc network. His career has focused on organizational development, expanding services for people with disabilities, and building relationships with families and communities.
“Joe brings an exceptional combination of executive leadership, strategic vision, and a genuine passion for the people and families we serve,” said Mark DeLotto, president of the ArcMorris Board of Directors. “His extensive experience within The Arc network and his ability to strengthen organizations and develop innovative services make him extremely well qualified to lead ArcMorris into its next chapter. We are confident he will build on our strong foundation while creating new opportunities for the people and communities who depend on us.”
Mancini, 47, began his career as a direct support professional, an experience that continues to shape his leadership philosophy and commitment to person-centered services. He subsequently held senior leadership positions with The Arc of Lehigh and Northampton Counties and served as executive director of The Arc of Philadelphia. Most recently, he was executive director of Pennsylvania for Abound Health.
His longstanding involvement with The Arc network reflects his commitment to advocacy, inclusion, and advancing the rights and opportunities of people with disabilities. His contributions to the field have earned recognition, including the Arc Rising Star Award for Executive Directors and a Social Innovations Award.
Beyond his executive leadership experience, Mancini played an instrumental role in launching and developing nonprofit initiatives, including POCONO J.A.M., a basketball program serving boys and girls with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Pennsylvania. His work has focused on strategic planning, sustainable growth, innovative service delivery, and building partnerships that strengthen communities.
For Mancini, the mission is also personal. As a father of four, including a child with autism, he brings an additional understanding of the importance of quality services, advocacy, choice, and meaningful family support.
“I am honored to join ArcMorris and become part of an organization with such a rich history of service and commitment to people with disabilities and their families,” he said. “What makes an organization like ArcMorris truly special is its people — the people and families we support, the dedicated professionals who make our mission possible, and the community partners who stand alongside us. I look forward to building on the strong foundation, strengthening our programs and partnerships, and creating opportunities to enable people with disabilities to live meaningful, fulfilling lives.”
As chief executive officer, Mancini will lead ArcMorris’ strategic direction, organizational operations, and continued growth, working closely with the Board of Directors, leadership team, staff, families, and community stakeholders.
