Living Together in L'Arche
We are people with and without disabilities sharing life in a community of faith. Mutual relationships and trust in God are at the heart of our life together. We seek to build a world that recognizes the unique value of every person and our need for one another.
We are one of 16 L'Arche communities in the U.S. and one of 135 communities in 36 countries around the world.
"Walk in Faith"
Last year, Kuandé Hall of the Military Visual Journalism program of Syracuse University's Newhouse School, created a video featuring one of our core members, Ted Fox. Learn more about us by viewing this video...
Be an Assistant
Living, working, praying and playing together, core members and assistants are transformed through relationships of mutuality, respect and companionship. Our assistants accompany our core people in their daily activities and at home. Some assistants choose to live in the home; others live out.
In addition to a fulfilling, life-changing experience, we offer our assistants a great benefits package. Not only can you save your earnings by living in a home, but our participation in AmeriCorps allows you to accrue up to $11,100 to apply to your future education or current educational loans.
