Are you experiencing homelessness or do you know someone who is?

In addition to serving as the Homeless Coalition lead for Northwest Louisiana, HOPE Connections also serves as the front door to the homeless system. We manage the homeless one-stop for this area, and operate the programs that connect clients to all of the agencies.

The HOPE Connections Day Shelter is not operating at this time. We have opened a 22-bed overnight shelter for people experiencing street homelessness.

All people entering the building must have their temperature taken and have a mask on.  If anyone is showing symptoms of COVID-19, they will be referred for testing.

The Street Outreach Team is visiting homeless camps, abandoned buildings, and anywhere else people are living that is not meant for human habitation. They are delivering food and water as available. They are also taking the temperature of those experiencing homelessness to ensure that everyone has access to testing/healthcare if needed.
