Partnerships

Educational, Economic and Cultural Partnerships

Southeastern's St. Tammany Center is very proud to have working partnerships with other educational institutions such as the St. Tammany Parish School Board and Delgado Community College.  Existing educational partnerships sponsor events, provide community education and provide an easy transition from high school or community college to higher education.  In addition, the St. Tammany Center participates in volunteer activities that benefit the quality of life, such as the annual St. Tammany Parish Holiday of Lights Event. 

We also work closely with governmental agencies and the West St. Tammany Chamber in assisting and providing services, workshops and economic and cultural development activities.  If you have an idea or are interested in working with the St. Tammany Center, please contact Ms. Stella Helluin at (985) 893-6251 or email shelluin@selu.edu
