Become an assistant

In L’Arche communities, assistants and people with a developmental disability live, work and share their time together. If you want to join a community to assist people with an intellectual disability, you will be challenged to difference and diversity, to openness and tolerance, to close relationships, to personal and spiritual growth.

According to your own personal desire, your skills and the needs of the community, you may live and work in a home, or work in an occupational therapy / production workshop. If you come to L’Arche, you will bring with you your gifts, your skills, your know-how, but it is above all you, as a person, that we are expecting. In L’Arche, being ready to receive is just as important as giving.
