We regret to inform that the Exceptional Entrepreneurs of Louisiana (ExcEL) self-employment training program, funded through Louisiana Rehabilitation Services, has been discontinued due to funding issues.

ExcEL began in 1998, along with financial assistance from La. Rehab. Services, has helped many people with disabilities start their own businesses and, not only become independent of government funded disability benefits, but also had a positive effect on the economic impact within their communities. We will continue our efforts to have this program restored.
