S.H.A.R.E. Center

The S.H.A.R.E. Center is a basic needs hub for LSUS students to connect with resources that bridge the gap between our students and their goals.

S.H.A.R.E stands for Student Health, Advocacy, Resources and Empowerment.

Students that visit the S.H.A.R.E. Center have the opportunity to learn about resources they are eligible for, be it federally, locally, or even on our own campus!

Your health, belonging, and wellbeing are our top priorities. Resources are available on campus and in the community to assist you with all areas of student success: physical, emotional, social, and intellectual. The S.H.A.R.E. Center connects you to these resources so you can focus on academics, career goals, and interpersonal relationships.

Basic Needs Hub

LSUS has partnered with Single Stop USA, a nonprofit organization, to create a "One Stop Shop" for students to get connected to resources that will help keep them in school.

Students who utilize this tool get screened for multiple government benefits and local community resources, receive assistance in accessing those benefits, and follow-up to see if they have in fact received the benefits they are eligible for.

LSUS Foundation Emergency Fund

Generous donors have established a fund to help students when a minor, one-time financial challenge such as a car repair, utility bill, childcare, etc., has the potential to derail their pursuit of a college degree at LSUS. This fund does not provide additional dollars for tuition.

For information on how to apply for these emergency funds, contact the Dean of Students office at 318-797-5116 or via email at deanofstudents@lsus.edu.

Our campus is dedicated to giving the students the tools they need to THRIVE!

Additional available resources on campus and in the community can be found by accessing the following links:

Regardless of services sought, the office and staff remain respectful of the privacy of the student. Additionally, staff will remain in compliance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA).
