Organization Information

Mission Statement

L’Arche Jacksonville is a community with four family-style homes, the Blanchart Community Center and an off-site day program called the Rainbow Workshop.

We believe that by creating an environment where people with intellectual and physical disabilities can share their gifts, we are affecting a positive change in the world. We believe that these shared gifts have the power to transform the lives of those who are open to receiving them. We celebrate the unique value of every person and recognize our need for one another. We resolve to explore and appreciate the diverse cultures and faith practices within L’Arche and to work together toward a more evolved and caring human society.

Description

By this means, L'Arche seeks to respond to the distress of those who are too often rejected, and to give them a valid place in society. L"Arche brings together those with disabilities, known as the core members as they are the center of the community, and those without disabilities (live-in assistants and live-out) to share their lives together in community
