About Florida Parishes Human Servs Authority

Florida Parishes Human Services Authority (FPHSA) is a public community agency based in Hammond, Louisiana, serving residents of Livingston, St. Helena, St. Tammany, Tangipahoa, and Washington Parishes. They offer recovery-oriented, person-centered behavioral health care that covers substance use, mental health, and gambling addiction, along with prevention programs and developmental disabilities services. Treatment happens through their outpatient behavioral health clinics, where new clients can walk in on weekday mornings and early afternoons to begin the intake process. Because FPHSA is a government agency, they are required to verify immigration status for everyone seeking services.

Cost shouldn’t keep anyone from getting help here, since they turn no one away for inability to pay, offer a sliding fee scale for uninsured and underinsured clients, and help people apply for Medicaid. Pregnant women who use drugs or alcohol, pregnant people who inject drugs, and others who inject drugs receive priority access to treatment, and staff encourage pregnant clients to share this right away so care can start quickly. Appointments are usually in person, though telehealth may be an option when clinically appropriate, and interpreter and translation services are available at every location. Through a partnership with VIA LINK, they also provide around-the-clock phone, text, and chat support for people in crisis, including suicide intervention and opioid counseling.
