The Extra Mile was founded in 1991 as a private non-profit to serve the office of mental health community. At that time, we served primarily clients of the Office of Behavioral Health, Office of Addictive Disorders, and Office for Citizens with Developmental Disabilities. In time, we also began providing services to the Department of Children and Family Services. We still serve these clients, but one thing that we have done over the years is assess the community for needs, and create programs to fill in gaps in needed services, such as AVEC Les Enfants.

In addition, The Extra Mile has always had a strong volunteer component. We were originally created to recruit volunteers to serve our state clients, and although the agency has changed and grown tremendously through the years, we have retained this core value; we continue to recruit, train and place volunteers all over Acadiana.
