Upcoming ASIST Training

Our club has participated in several events and programs designed to support mental health awareness issues. Last year our club sponsored lunch for one day for an ASIST TRAINING class. We also participated in the annual SAVE CENLA WALK FOR LIFE by providing water for attendees and having a booth at the event with materials to show support for the cause. There is an upcoming ASIST training class in Mansura - at the LSU Ag Center on Highway 1, July 30-31.. 
We have all been impacted by suicide.. A positive way each member can get involved is to attend an ASIST class. If you have not already done so - please sign up and attend - so you can learn the skills to save a life.

Installation of Officers

The club officers and board members for the 2025-2026 year were installed by Avoyelles Clerk of Court Connie Desselle at the meeting on Wednesday June 25th.
