Sweet Home New Orleans Opens Office at the New Orleans Healing Center

On Sunday December 18th, Sweet Home New Orleans celebrated its move to a new home in the New Orleans Healing Center. Led by the Tremé Brass Band, Sweet Home New Orleans staffers, board members, and supporters Second Lined from the old office on Elysian Fields, down St. Claude Avenue and through the New Orleans Healing Center front doors for the official ribbon cutting and reception in their new office.

Sweet Home New Orleans has had three homes since its founding in 2005; from a crowded two-room office in Tremé, to borrowed space from NOCCA and the Antenna Gallery, helping clients along the way to rebuild their roofs while their own was falling down! According to Sweet Home New Orleans Executive Director, Sue Mobley, musicians, Mardi Gras Indians, Social Aid and Pleasure Club members, and others have responded to this move in the same way, “That’s perfect, that’s where y’all should have been all along!”

Sweet Home New Orleans’ mission is to support the individuals and organizations that perpetuate New Orleans’ unique musical and cultural traditions. Merging with Renew Our Music Fund in 2008 to create a one-stop service center for New Orleans’ music and cultural community, Sweet Home New Orleans supports the revitalization and sustainability of New Orleans music and the cultural community through individual case management, counseling, legal assistance, advocacy, and music business education.

Welcome Sweet Home New Orleans!

NEW ORLEANS COMMUNITY OUTREACH (NOCO) By Cindy Cochran, Director

The New Orleans Community Outreach program (NOCO) is a non-profit organization housed in the New Orleans Healing Center that will provide access to programs and services at the Healing Center to the underserved in our community. The New Orleans Healing Center offers a myriad of health and healing services to the community and to paying clients.  It is our belief that these services should be and can be available to everyone regardless of income or ability to pay.  In order to achieve this goal NOCO will issue vouchers on a sliding scale fee basis that will significantly reduce or waive the costs of services provided by silo practitioners so that those who want to have access to what the Healing Center has to offer will be able to do so. We will do this by providing vouchers on a sliding scale fee basis that will allow members of the community that cannot afford to participate otherwise.

 As 2011 ends and 2012 begins, we are going to launch our program.   The way the program works is that we will qualify people based on income and ability to pay and also what services would be the most beneficial to their needs.  We will then provide vouchers that will allow them to participate in the services and programs offered at a greatly reduced fee or at no cost to them.  We then will reimburse the practitioners with funds raised by NOCO for the services they provide so that they do not have to absorb the financial burden themselves and will allow them to sustain their businesses and also serve the community as a whole.

 We at NOCO would like to ask two things of you.  First if you know of anybody or if you yourself would like to participate in our program please contact me at cindy.noco@gmail.com or call 504-342-4314, and we will set up an intake appointment.  Secondly we would like to ask those who are able to and believe in our mission to please consider making a generous donation to NOCO so that we may move forward and continue to serve everybody in our community. 

 To make a tax deductable donation to New Orleans Community Outreach, please go to the NOCO page on the New Orleans Healing Center web site http://neworleanshealingcenter.org/community/noco/ to donate online.  If you prefer to send a check, please make the check payable to NPN and reference NOCO on the memo line in the lower left corner of the check and mail it to NOCO, 2372 St. Claude Avenue, Suite 260, New Orleans, LA 70117.

 Thank you for your support and may we all have a happy and healthy 2012.
