Our Purpose

The Oklahoma Sponsoring Committee is a coalition of 25 congregations and non-profit groups that have come together out of a deep sense of mission and concern for the pressures faced by families in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area. We want to better understand those pressures by asking our own members to talk about the experiences of their families in the community. Members strive to foster real conversations about real experiences without ideological shouting matches! We want to develop the leadership skills of our own members to more effectively work within the democratic process with civic leaders and public officials on issues of concern to families.

We as individual members may differ on many issues.  However, we're able to put those differences aside, yet still maintain our identity and beliefs, and focus on our common ground.
