Coordinated Street Outreach

Outreach teams are responding to requests as quickly as possible. If you or someone you see needs urgent assistance, please call 911.

  • During extreme weather events, Outreach Teams from several agencies work together to ensure that people living unsheltered (on the streets) are informed about and protected from upcoming winter weather. They bring them gear and offer rides to warming stations and shelters. 

  • To submit an outreach request, please fill out our Outreach Request Form and we will find a team available to provide assistance.

  • If you see someone in immediate danger, please call 911. 

How can I help?

  • Donate Supplies: Items like bottled water, sunscreen, lightweight clothing, hats, and hygiene supplies are especially useful during extreme heat.

    Several local organizations accept donations, including the Tulsa Day Center at 415 W. Archer. Check with individual locations for their current needs and drop-off hours.

  • Monetary Contributions: Every dollar helps! Your donations allow teams to purchase life-saving items and provide essential services during extreme weather.
