Get Involved

Work

Become an Assistant. At L’Arche Clinton, individuals with developmental disabilities are known as “core members,” and “assistants” are those who come to share life with them. Assistants accompany core members in their activities of daily life, such as creating homes and supporting core members in sharing their gifts within the house and the larger community. Live-in and live-out positions available now.

Volunteer

We are always looking to widen the circle of our community and there are many different ways to be involved in our community life. Some are very hands on and others are more removed; all are equally important! Below are some possible ways of becoming involved in L’Arche Clinton as a volunteer:

“I just want to say that I love working for L’Arche because of the friendly, family-like environment. Core Members and staff alike are celebrated for their strengths and gifts. It is a place of empowerment and growth. There’s no place like L’Arche!”
