L’Arche North Carolina
The Triangle
L’Arche North Carolina cultivates inclusive communities where people across the spectrum of intellectual and developmental disability identities live and flourish together.
We envision a just society where diverse people with and without disabilities thrive.
At L’Arche, we find the sacred in our shared humanity and daily life, and seek to nurture the spiritualities of all people. All of us, whether or not we live with I/DD, desire a sense of belonging.
L’Arche North Carolina hosts inclusive programs friendships are formed, and every gift is celebrated. Our goal is to open a home where meals are shared and a sense of welcome and inclusion are lived out.
Our friends at L’Arche St. Louis produced this video to tell the story of what life is like at L’Arche. Take a look to see the kind of community we envision.
Too many adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities continue to face limited opportunities for safe, affordable housing and meaningful community life. While housing is essential, everyone deserves more than a place to live. Every person deserves to be known, valued, and surrounded by relationships where they can grow, contribute, and belong.
L’Arche North Carolina opened its first home in Durham in 2025, where adults with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities share everyday life together. Through shared meals, celebrations, challenges, and friendships, we discover that every person has gifts to offer and that community changes us all.
