L’Arche in the World

We are all around the US and the World!

L’Arche is an international movement and consists of 160 communities across the globe. There are L’Arche homes in 37 countries! The same mission and lived experience of L’Arche is expressed in unique diverse ways that reflect the culture, religious practices, and social-economic characteristics of the places in which each community exists.

#AsIAm invites us to “rejoice in who you are as you are,” taking a stand against the global injustice of ableism. L’Arche International’s #AsIAm Web Series invites us to imagine the world differently:

#L’ArcheWithandWithout: At L’Arche, being different is our way of life. With and without go so well together that we hardly know which is which. Because what really counts for us is to live a life that is more full, in connection with one another.

L’Arche Charter

The L’Arche International Charter, adopted in 2023, brings together voices from L’Arche communities around the world to express all that unites us, calling our members to our mission to make known the gifts of people with intellectual disabilities revealed through mutually transforming relationships.

Solidarity

Those in L’Arche, domestically and internationally, share a responsibility for one another and are committed to fostering a world in which we all belong. Being in solidarity with one another allows us to unify our communities by recognizing the realities of our inherent differences as well as the common humanity that we share.
