A Holistic Approach to Support
Many support programs for people with developmental disabilities focus primarily on housing, finances, work opportunities, and social activities. At L’Arche, we go deeper. We recognize the importance of building relationships and fostering spiritual well-being while offering individuals a space to grow in their personal and faith journeys.
A Community of Connection and Care
At L’Arche, community means family where we cultivate mutual, caring relationships. We come together often to celebrate milestones, share news, sing, pray, and enjoy meals. In moments of joy and sorrow, we support each other, thus creating a true sense of belonging.
Inclusive and Meaningful Participation
Everyone in our community is encouraged to contribute their unique gifts and take part in planning and organizing community activities. Whether through leadership, creativity, or simply sharing in fellowship, each person’s presence is valued.
Living Out a Spiritual Life
Although L’Arche is rooted in Christian tradition, we welcome individuals of all faiths or no faith background. We believe every person has a unique value and purpose in life, deserving to be loved and cherished for who they are and to worship in their preferred way.
