Increasingly we see research focused on the importance of community and connections. LAMHA’s peer led Fisher Project employs those principles to help individuals on their journey to healing. Take a moment to hear from one brave individual who is sharing his success story.

Behavioral Health Day 2026

LAMHA appreciates all of those who spoke yesterday, brought tables, or just attended. The gathering is an opportunity for all of us to raise our collective voices for health parity. More importantly, this year, it was a chance to mourn together for the recent tragedies in Shreveport and Baton Rouge. Beyond mourning, it also enabled us to discuss the change and evolution of behavioral health in Louisiana with our legislators. LAMHA calls all advocates to keep up the momentum. Talk to your elected officials and let them know what is happening and what is needed in our state.
