About the Company

For over 50 years, L’Arche Toronto has brought to life the mission of L’Arche in the east end of Toronto. At L’Arche, people with intellectual disabilities (core members) share daily life with those who support them (assistants), alongside a wide circle of family, friends, and neighbours. 

We believe that everyone has something unique to contribute and that meaningful belonging and relationships of mutual care help build a more just, creative, and caring community for all.

Job Description

The Digital Archives Assistant will work alongside the Community Life Coordinator and a small committee (volunteers with and without disabilities and tech experts) to help us create a Digital Photo Archive to preserve and access photos of our rich community life to be used and enjoyed by members now and in the years to come. This project is long overdue. It will be a fun challenge, as our members work to identify the who, what, when, and where of each photo!

Key Responsibilities

• Work with the committee
• Set up a digital photo database that will be accessible to members
• Identify and label photos
• Create an index
