Our vision of inclusion and belonging

When communities welcome the contributions of persons with intellectual and other disabilities, they thrive, and we all benefit from a more vibrant, creative, and compassionate society.

Creating safe, respectful places of belonging

L’Arche was founded to be a safe place where people who are vulnerable and marginalized discover respect and valued belonging. The name L’Arche, after Noah’s ark, was chosen to represent this promise. The current L’Arche logo shows each person with a place in the boat of equal dignity and value. These values are fundamental to the vision and mission of L’Arche for all who participate in our life and for the world.

Our Abuse Prevention Policy

Our commitment to respect all individuals, to prevent abuse, discrimination and harassment, and to provide support and intervention when required.
