About the Living Well Foundation

The Living Well Foundation is a non-profit public charity that was established upon the sale of a local public hospital in 2006.
Its goals are to enhance the quality of life and health of the citizens of Ouachita Parish and the 7 surrounding parishes
and to assist in collaborative and innovative networking within the region.

The Living Well Foundation supports several projects in the northeast Louisiana area that seek to improve
the medical, dental, and behavioral health of the population, especially kids.
Specific initiatives include dental hygiene clinics with the University of Louisiana at Monroe (ULM) Department of Dental Hygiene,
suicide prevention/intervention, dementia/Alzheimers cognitive deficit disorders, and school-based health centers with local school boards and medical providers,
including federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and others.

Other projects that provide behavioral health support services on school campuses and in communities
are supported with area non-profit agencies and clinical professionals.
