How we help
Our stories

What we do
At the heart of L’Arche North Carolina is the support we provide to people with intellectual/developmental disabilities. We create programs and homes where life is shared in community together. See our plan for building L’Arche North Carolina for more.
Our impact
Friendships and daily life together are at the heart of our model of individual and societal transformation. We aim to change society’s stance towards hose with I/DD from one of charity to one of contribution. Read our impact page for more.
