About Disability Rights Louisiana
Disability Rights Louisiana is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in New Orleans that serves as Louisiana's federally designated protection and advocacy system for individuals with disabilities. As the primary advocacy entity for the state, the organization protects and advocates for the human and legal rights of people with disabilities of all ages across Louisiana. Since its registration with SAM.gov in August 2004, Disability Rights Louisiana has consistently received federal grant funding to support its mission of ensuring equal rights and access for individuals with disabilities. The organization has established itself as a critical partner to multiple federal agencies in advancing disability rights and services across the state.
Disability Rights Louisiana has received substantial federal grant support primarily through formula grants from three main federal agencies: the Administration on Disabilities, the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services, and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The organization's grant portfolio encompasses multiple protection and advocacy programs, including the Protection and Advocacy for Individuals with Mental Illness (PAIMI) program, which provides $158,333 to protect and advocate for adults with serious mental illness and children with serious emotional disturbances through legal representation and investigation of abuse and neglect cases. Additional core programs include the Developmental Disabilities (DD) Act State Protection and Advocacy program, which received $182,175 to provide legal advocacy and systemic change activities for individuals with developmental disabilities; the Protection and Advocacy of Individual Rights (PAIR) program supporting general disability rights protection; the Protection and Advocacy for Assistive Technology (PAAT) program; the Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Act Protection and Advocacy program; and the Voting Access for Individuals with Disabilities (PAVA) program. The organization also administers the Client Assistance Program (CAP) and operates the Work Incentives Planning and Assistance (WIPA) program as a cooperative agreement with the Social Security Administration. Additionally, Disability Rights Louisiana manages two project grants from the Social Security Administration addressing protection and advocacy for beneficiaries of Social Security and oversight of representative payee management. Services provided through these grants include investigating incidents of abuse, neglect, and rights violations; providing legal representation and pursuing administrative and legal remedies; ensuring voting rights accessibility; facilitating community integration; promoting access to assistive technologies; offering work incentive planning and assistance; and conducting monitoring and advocacy activities across multiple disability populations and service areas within Louisiana.
