Winnipeg

Creating a world where everyone belongs

L’Arche Winnipeg operates throughout the local neighborhoods of Transcona, St. Boniface, and Southdale. 

We live, learn, grow, work, gather, and build community in Treaty One Territory, the home and traditional lands of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Ojibwe-Cree, Dakota and Dene peoples, and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. We give thanks for our clean drinking water, which comes from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation, in Treaty Three Territory.


We respect the Treaties made on these territories, and we mourn the systematic oppression and discrimination of Indigenous peoples. We dedicate ourselves to move forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration to create an inclusive and accessible world where everyone belongs and is celebrated for their unique gifts.

About

L’Arche Winnipeg creates homes and social opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities in Winnipeg. We have six homes and a Supported Independent Living Program (SIL). 

“L'Arche Winnipeg exists to make the gifts of people with disabilities known. When those gifts are displayed and their sparkle comes out so strongly, we celebrate those moments.”

Dominic Opaka, Community Leader/Executive Director

Get involved

Our community has grown over the years, and today we welcome 25 people with a developmental disability who are living in our six houses and one supported-living apartment, along with approximately 30 assistants.
