Why Did Resilient Oklahoma Begin?

This website has been created with a heartfelt purpose: to empower families and individuals from all backgrounds to embrace resilience, cultivate hope, and foster the growth of trauma-informed care initiatives in Oklahoma. Our aim is to provide a welcoming platform where everyone can access resources, share the work they are doing, build tunnels and bridges between organizations, individuals, communities, and service providers, and embark on a journey toward healing, understanding, and supporting our state. Together, we’re building a more resilient, hopeful, and compassionate Oklahoma!
