Ensure L'Arche residents can share life with assistants in the home
 

Please watch the wording so that group home includes caregivers who live in the home. As a formal caregiver at L'Arche, I can't tell you enough about how beneficial it is for us to all share a home, in terms of overall quality of services and quality of life. This would have a major impact on the model of living L'Arche and more importantly remove choice for people with Intellectual Disabilities.
