Larche-Cleveland

L'Arche Cleveland is a community of adults with and without disabilities who share their lives together. We live everyday as a family, sharing meals together, praying together, and living everyday life together. We have five loving homes in the Cleveland area where we live and serve alongside 15 Core Members (residents with Developmental Disabilities) who are at the core of our mission. 

Our Mission

• To make known the gifts of people with Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities, revealed through mutually transforming relationships;
• To foster an environment in community that responds to the changing needs of our Core Members, while being faithful to the needs of our founding story;
• To engage in our diverse cultures, working together towards a more human society

Our Identity

We are people, with and without disabilities, sharing life in communities, belonging to an international federation. Mutual relationships and trust in God are at the heart of our lives together. We celebrate the unique value of each person and recognize our need for one another.
