Today is World Autism Day! 💜

Established in 2007, the United Nations designated April 2 as World Autism Awareness Day to promote the full realization of human rights and fundamental freedoms for autistic individuals, ensuring their equal participation in society.

At St. Tammany Health System, we are working hard to do our part to better care for pediatric patients in our community with autism as six of our pediatric service lines hold a Certified Autism Center designation from the IBCCES.

We don't just want to become autism friendly, we want to be autism competent. Learn more about what STHS is doing to better support our patients, and learn how you can get involved and support this initiative for our community.

We are thrilled to be the recipient of this year's 8th Annual Falaya Float supporting the Foundation's initiative to better care for pediatric patients with autism in our community. ❤️

This is sure to be a great day on the beautiful Bogue Falaya River with tons of fun in store! Please consider becoming a sponsor or participating! For more information, visit www.FalayaFloat.com. 🚣

We’re getting excited to announce our 8th Annual Falaya Float on June 6, 2026 — and we’re looking for a few more amazing sponsors to help make this year the best one yet!

This event continues to grow every year, bringing our community together for a fun, family-friendly day on the Bogue Falaya — all while supporting a great cause through the St. Tammany Health Foundation for Autism.

We are currently seeking sponsors to help with food, drinks, and event support. In return, your business will be recognized on event materials, social media, and seen by a large local crowd of participants and supporters.

💙 This is a great opportunity to promote your business while giving back to the community.

If you or your business would be interested in sponsoring (or if you know someone who might be), please message me directly or visit our website at www.falayafloat.com

Thank you to everyone who has supported us in the past — we truly couldn’t do this without you!

THANK YOU to these awesome 7th graders at St. Peter Catholic School for raising money at their SOUL Day to support St. Tammany Health System’s Diabetes Education Program!

S.O.U.L. Day (Serving Others, United in Love) is an opportunity for 3rd, 5th, and 7th graders to sell handmade and homemade goods to other students. We are so grateful for these future leaders supporting our efforts to better care for diabetic patients in our community. 💚
