CRISIS CHAT is for anyone who is going through a hard time, has thoughts about suicide, or just needs to talk. Crisis intervention specialists are ready to listen, provide emotional support and help you cope. Specialists are not here to judge or tell you what you should do. We understand that people are the experts in their own lives.

People in great need often file early - and at great expense - through commercial tax preparation services that charge large fees. We want to spread the word that FREE tax help is available. By filing returns at local VITA sites people receive 100% of their refund. IRS-trained volunteers can help you find special tax credits. DIAL 211 TO MAKE YOUR APPOINTMENT.
IRS-certified volunteers who provide tax counseling are often retired individuals associated with non-profit organizations that receive grants from the IRS. Taxpayers who come to free tax preparation sites can find out about programs that will help them leverage their refunds toward the financial success of their families. These asset-building programs provide financial education, homebuyer's education, down payment assistance and low-interest car loans.
From strengthening local resilience to advancing Youth Opportunity, Healthy Communities, Community Resiliency and Financial Security, United Way Southwest Louisiana is mobilizing communities to take action so all can thrive.
