At Lighthouse Louisiana our mission is to empower people with disabilities through services, employment, and advocacy.

Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in New Orleans and Baton Rouge  create jobs for people who are blind. Proceeds from the sales of high-quality, commercially competitive products help fund services for people who are blind, Deaf, and who have other disabilities.

We help people get jobs, regain their independence, and challenge expectations of the capabilities of people with disabilities. Even as a century-old nonprofit, we’re constantly evolving to better serve our community.

Services offered to children between the ages of 0 – 13 years, and their families, ensure that developmental milestones are met, and as the child grows, emphasis is equally placed on academic and social development.

Services offered to youth between the ages of 14 – 22 years help these students and young professionals become more independent and prepare for future success in a sighted world.
