We are excited about the upcoming Bryan County Care Portal Launch with OKDHS. CarePortal is an initiative of 111Project brought to connect the faith community to local children and families in need. Local agency partners like OKDHS identify children and families who need assistance and allow those in the faith community to help through the local churches! 111Project is excited to see the launch of the CarePortal software in connecting churches now in Bryan County! More than 50 counties have launched, and more than 600 churches are now using CarePortal in Oklahoma to see child advocate/agency requests.

Mayes County Community Gathering

Heritage Cafe 1500 E. Graham Ave, Pryor, United States

We are so excited about the upcoming Community Gathering of Mayes County. Where we will make meaningful connections with leaders in the community, utilize Careportal, & continue to provide solutions to the foster care crisis happening in our own backyard. This Months Highlights: There are over 6,200 Churches in Oklahoma. If 1,000 Churches recruited one foster family per year and met one Careportal request a month, there would be more than enough support for children involved in the child welfare system. Careportal Item of the Month: Twin Bedding Sets
