Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention is a Community Responsibility
In a prefect world, all children would grow up in safe, loving homes. Our children are our future and they are our most precious resource.  But in reality,  child abuse and neglect harm our children every day. The OK County Kids Task Force has organized to help make a brighter future for our children through public, private, and volunteer cooperation to help prevent child abuse and neglect  in Oklahoma County.
 
About our Site:
Welcome to our site. This site tells you about us. It also provides information about some of the programs available to support families as supporting families reduces the stress of parenting which, in turn, reduces the occurrence of child abuse and neglect. If you have suggestions about other supports you feel we should include, please contact us.

COMMUNITY NEWS:

Free H1N1 Flu Shot Special Event

Flu Season Isn’t Over –Our Community Deserves Protection

If you haven’t been able to get flu shots for yourself and your family because the clinics are scheduled at the wrong time or are too far away, now’s your chance. OCCHD is offering free H1N1 vaccinations at a special event on Saturday, February 13th 2 p.m. – 7 p.m. at 921 NE 23rd Street..Originally slated January 30,  the event has been re-scheduled because harsh weather conditions are expected to hit soon. OCCHD is especially encouraging residents of NE Oklahoma City to take advantage of the event. The NE side has high rates of hospitalizations from H1N1 and low vaccination numbers.

So come out and get vaccinated – not just for you, but everyone around you that you love. Do it for your children, grandchildren, spouse or grandparents to keep them safe!

Can’t make it Saturday? Free H1N1 flu shots are available every Monday—Thursday, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 921 NE 23rd Street. No appointment necessary!

Let’s do all we can to keep our community healthy. You deserve protection.
