Disability Services

Assists persons with disabilities in their desire to obtain, maintain or advance in competitive integrated employment and achieve independence in their communities by providing rehabilitation services and working cooperatively with business and other community resources.

New Horizons offers five core independent living services, deaf and hard of hearing services, employment services, our durable medical GREEN program, and attendant services to people with disabilities in the 29 parishes of North Louisiana. We also provide support for people with disabilities who are considering transitioning from a nursing home or other institution. Services and programs are directed from our main office in Shreveport and from branch offices in Alexandria and Monroe, in the homes of consumers, and in the community. The primary focus of all of the services and programs is toward “enabling people with disabilities to live independently.” New Horizons does not discriminate in the provision of services on the basis of race, color, creed, national origin, sex, age, sexual orientation, or disability.

Provides home and community based supports and services to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as other housing, respite, day program, and employment services (through Frost Industries).
