Fact Sheet

This L'Arche Canada: Aging And Disability's grief support kit shares three documents (Manual, Journal and Backgrounder), facilitating groups with people who have an intellectual disability. The grief support kit also looks at ways that people can support one another through the grieving process. It gives particular attention to the experience of grieving in the context of a community of ‘differently-abled’ individuals.

About the organization: Across Canada and around the world, L'Arche Canada: Aging And Disability creates communities of friendship and belonging. In L’Arche, people with and without intellectual disabilities live, work, learn, and grow together. L’Arche demonstrates that when persons with intellectual disabilities take their place at the table, they contribute to a more just, compassionate, and vibrant world for all.
