At L’Arche Greater Vancouver, we are more than a community – we are a family.

Rooted in the spirit of inclusion and belonging, we bring together adults with developmental disabilities and those who support them to share life in meaningful, transformative ways. In our Supported Living Homes, Day Programs and work environments, people of all backgrounds- regardless of religion, race, gender, or culture- are welcomed and embraced.

We believe in the power of shared living. Our approach is simple yet profound: By living, working, and celebrating together, we create spaces where everyone’s unique gifts are recognized, nurtured, and celebrated. For many, this way of life is not only enriching but life changing.

Our mission is to...

Make known the gifts of people with intellectual disabilities, revealed through mutually transforming relationships.

Foster an environment that responds to the changing needs of our core members, whilst being faithful to the core values of our founding story.

Engage in over diverse cultures, working together toward a more human society.
