Can you imagine the struggle of trying to find a stable home for yourself and your child? Or searching for affordable housing while undergoing cancer treatment? Unfortunately, these are the realities for many of our fellow Tulsans. This Tulsa World article uses the most recent data to challenge the prevalent myth that people are bussed into Tulsa for our homeless services. The findings reveal that most individuals facing homelessness are actually our own residents—our colleagues, friends, and family. This is not merely an individual's battle; it’s a broad community issue that touches many aspects of our lives. Homelessness demands a compassionate, collective response, not judgment. As professionals and leaders in our community, we have the responsibility and the resources to spearhead change and foster solutions that uphold the dignity of every Tulsa resident. Let's come together to discuss and implement sustainable solutions that address the root causes and support our neighbors in need. https://lnkd.in/gip2VXfU

The path forward is clear: keep pushing, keep supporting, and keep advocating for those in need. Want to dive deeper into the findings and see how you can help?

Between 2022 and 2023, the number of Oklahomans experiencing homelessness increased by 25%, revealing a stark reality many face in securing safe and affordable housing. This isn't just about having a roof over one's head; it's about the very foundation of health and well-being. Let's rethink how we approach health and housing. Join the conversation, spread the word, and discover how we can make a difference together.

In a recent TulsaPeople Magazine interview, Elliot Nelson, founder of McNellie's Group, highlighted what he wants to focus on next, specifically affordable housing. “If [affordable housing] is one of the greatest issues facing our city and society at large in the coming years, I think it’s going to be interesting to lean in and help figure it out.” This perspective emphasizes that affordable housing is more than just shelter; it's about creating stability, opportunity, and community. Business owners have a unique opportunity to drive meaningful change in Tulsa.
