Our Kids Count has been such a positive in mine and my families’ life. When I first came to OKC I was broken & lost. With the help of staff and their positive influence and awesome programs, I have found myself on a positive track.
My children have enjoyed programs, and this helped them transition into school because they had been in social situations away from me, in OKC programs. Cooking programs have opened my eyes about new ways to prepare healthy foods and given my children an opportunity to try new foods. My oldest son regularly uses the skills he learned in the kitchens and this has helped him gain some independence.
I am in a position now where I can give back to OKC by volunteering and I am proud to be a part of this organization.
