We welcome each opportunity to introduce people to the life and spirit of L’Arche.

In whatever way you are inspired to become involved – an interest in working with people who have disabilities, a spiritual resonance with L’Arche’s vision of mutuality and solidarity with persons who are marginalized, a desire to immerse yourself in community, or a sense that there must be something more to life – we want to hear from you!

There are several ways to participate in L’Arche:

• Become an assistant. Consider committing a year of more to living in a L'Arche community. To learn more about life as an assistant, please visit our Become an Assistant page.

• Become a donor. Be a partner in building a strong network of L'Arche communities across the U.S., and extending the values and vision of L'Arche in our society. Please visit our Donate page.

• Become a volunteer or friend. You can be a friend to a local L’Arche community. To volunteer, please contact your nearest community.
