L'Arche Portland

L’Arche is a group of “People with and without intellectual disabilities sharing life, creating home, and building meaningful relationships together”. Students who volunteer with L’Arche are able to build these relationships, engage in this welcoming community, and have so much fun!  Activities could include gardening, chatting, watching movies, coloring etc at L'Arche homes.  Hours are flexible and you can choose to volunteer every week or for occasional events (like the Halloween or Christmas Party!). 

Hours of availability to volunteer include Mondays-Fridays from 3 -7 PM or any time on weekends.  Students are able to borrow a Moreau Center vehicle to drive to L'Arche homes or can carpool with another volunteer if their availability is the same.  For L'Arche events, carpooling is available and some take place on UP's campus.

Email CVC.larchepdx@up.edu if you are interested in volunteering!
