A nonprofit working with young people lacking stability in their lives including trauma or facing homelessness.
关于我们
Established in 1972, Pivot, A Turning Point for Youth, works with young people lacking stability in their lives. These young people are often homeless or couch homeless, alone or disengaged. Our 12 to 24 year olds have overwhelming barriers in their lives without the resources to overcome them and successfully transition into self-reliant adults. Pivot is committed to long-term impact in the lives of the youth we serve. We provide programs and services that focus on meeting housing and basic needs; education and job assistance; mentoring and life skills development; prevention and intervention services; and therapeutic care including mental health and substance abuse care. We believe that regardless of the circumstances from which young people come or the obstacles they face, they deserve access to educational and vocational opportunities, a stable and safe place to live, healthy permanent connections and overall well-being. *Formerly Youth Services for Oklahoma County.

This afternoon, Pivot staff came together to honor Black History Month, immersing ourselves in the rich legacy of Oklahoma City’s Deep Deuce. We explored the powerful stories and musical artistry that shaped not only our city but the cultural fabric of our nation. Celebrating these voices reminds us of the resilience, creativity, and influence of Black artists from Oklahoma: past and present. Together, we continue to learn, reflect and uplift the history that inspires us all. ?? #PivotOkla #BlackHistoryMonth
