"...developed a sense of unity with the Federation.” - 2017 Participant

Between 30% and 50% of new Community Leaders have no previous experience in L’Arche.
Since there is only one Community Leader, they can often feel alone in the role, and isolated from peers.

This workshop is about more than passing along essential information, it is a very important time for Community Leaders to get to know each other and create networks of support for one another.
Leaders come from across the Federation, from communities in all different contexts, and this diversity creates an environment where everyone has something to share.
