Measuring Transformation: The L’Arche Impact Study

Thanks to a grant from the John Templeton Foundation, L’Arche USA completed a groundbreaking evaluation of how our community model transforms lives — for both core members with intellectual disabilities and the assistants who live alongside them.

Six L’Arche communities across the U.S., including L’Arche GWDC, participated in this study, which combined stories, data, and the voices of those we love. The result: a rich, 120-page report, a two-day virtual symposium, and a four-part animated series capturing the essence of life in L’Arche.
