Our History
People United of Louisiana LLC was established in June 2009. It is currently one of the newest support coordination agencies in Region 8. We will provide a quality service because our staff is highly trained, experienced, and courteous. People United will assist individuals to remain living in their homes or with their families by connecting them to needed supports and services in their community.
Each recipient of the Medicaid waiver and targeted support coordination has freedom to choose their provider. The individual’s choice of support coordination or direct service provider does not affect their eligibility for waiver and state-plan programs or support coordination services.
Medicaid recipients receiving support coordination services from the Office of Aging and Adult Services (OAAS) may contact the OAAS Help Line at 1-866-758-5035, OAAS Regional Office at 318-362-5070.
