Evergreen provides a wide variety of dynamic programs and services, including community homes, day work centers, supportive living and employment services, art centers, and social enterprise projects for persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities. As a thoughtful person who cares about people with disabilities, you can play an important role in making their daily lives healthier, safer, and more comfortable.
At Evergreen, we promote a family environment of love, acceptance, value, and friendship. We strive to help society understand disabilities and encourage inclusion and diversity throughout South Louisiana. The services provided by Evergreen can only continue with the generous support of donors like you.
Although money can't buy love, family, or a sense of dignity, your contribution enables the compassionate staff at Evergreen to provide these things to those we serve. You can transform the lives of those most in need in our community by taking action now to help Evergreen sustain our commitment to the health, safety, and comfort of those entrusted to our care.
"Evergreen has been a total blessing to my sister and our family. They provide the best care for her - better than we could ever have imagined. We didn't realize that there was a way she could live outside an institution until we learned about Evergreen. She is so much happier living in a community-based setting. You can see the difference in her personality. Evergreen is a Godsend." - Peggy Long, sister of an individual served by Evergreen
Elizabeth, an individual Evergreen serves, "is one of the best employees we've ever had. Elizabeth's enthusiasm and passion for her job have been a welcome addition to our team. We are proud that she's a part of Firehouse Subs." - Shawn and Annette McWaters, co-owners of Firehouse Subs, Hammond, LA
