Meet Our New Executive Director! 

Families Helping Families of Acadiana is excited to officially welcome Deborah Fontenot as our new Executive Director!

As Deborah steps into her new role, we asked her to share a little about herself and what this new role means to her.

Meet Deborah:

“Hello, my name is Deborah Fontenot, and first and foremost, I want to share how excited and honored I am to serve as the Executive Director of Families Helping Families of Acadiana.

I am the proud mother of three very energetic boys, two of whom have Fragile X Syndrome. My boys are my greatest inspiration, and they have played an incredible role in leading me to where I am today. Through our family’s experiences, I have developed an even deeper passion for supporting, encouraging, and empowering individuals with disabilities and their families.

I am truly happy and excited to take on this new role. I look forward to working alongside our families, staff, community partners, and supporters as we continue the important work of Families Helping Families of Acadiana.”

We are excited to welcome Deborah into this new role and look forward to all that is ahead for FHFOA!
