Southern University responds to Tensas Parish water crisis

Southern University is responding to the water crisis in Tensas Parish by initiating an on-going water collection.  Dr. Cheryl Taylor, associate nursing professor and chairperson of graduate nursing programs, started the effort in December and continues to accept donations from student and community organizations. 

“Our concern is for the future, the children,” said Taylor. “Through this effort, we want to raise awareness to the severity of the water crisis within Louisiana.”

Today’s donation will be sent to the Concordia Head Start located in Clayton, Louisiana.
