How can my relative with a disability come to L’Arche?
L’Arche communities in the United Sates serve adults with a diagnosis of developmental disability. Each community of has its own admissions procedure. L’Arche communities grow slowly because of the unusual L’Arche model of shared life in households that are home to both the core members (people with developmental disabilities) and those who share life with and support them (assistants). However, L’Arche communities welcome friendships with families where someone has a developmental disability, and they often have social gatherings to which they invite friends and visitors. To learn more about admissions, contact the L’Arche community closest to you.
