A statewide initiative to better understand the challenges faced by Louisiana’s military veterans and their families is set to launch in 2025.
This initiative, spearheaded by the Louisiana Center for Health Innovation (LCHI), a center under the Informatics Research Institute at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, in partnership with the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs (LDVA), aims to conduct a comprehensive needs assessment survey to identify gaps in resources and services, guiding future support efforts for the state’s veteran community.
The survey will focus on key areas such as mental health, housing, employment, healthcare access, and family support, providing a clear picture of the current realities faced by Louisiana’s veteran population. The findings will be used to improve existing services and inform strategic initiatives aimed at creating stronger, more resilient veteran communities across the state.
