Hello. I am a social worker for a home health company in Central Louisiana. I am currently working with a patient who a wheelchair ramp needs build onto her home so she may easily access outdoors for doctor appointments etc. She also needs help obtaining a wheelchair lift for the van that she is taken to her appointments in. Are there any services for the Natchitoches, La area that may assist? Thank you.

Don't know where to turn because we never had to ask for help. My husband & I are homeless as of tomorrow morning. We are both disabled & he's in a wheelchair. I have the majority of the money to move in to a place we just have no place to move into to that we can afford & we have no money to turn utilities on or food. We've been on waiting list for Section 8 for an apartment with a wheelchair ramp. If you can put I the right direction is greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

I am in a wheelchair (electric) and I can't afford to build a ramp so I have to get 2-3 people to help me get out of my home to go to the Dr even. I've been trying everything I can to get the funds needed to buy the treated wood for this as it's urgently needed!
I have volunteers who are willing to build it .
I just can't afford the treated wood needed.
Is there any agency it grants that can help me?
I live in Archdale, NC and in 74 years old .
I just got out of the hospital where I'd broken my hip in 3 places and I have tutatiun rods (3) in my neck and a plate in my throat, due to discs rupturing and partial paralyzed me from my waist down!
If there is anyway I can get help with this I'd appreciate it!
Thank you for your time and help!
