Notes:

From the website:

The Tulsa Day Center for the Homeless is Tulsa Counties'
only daytime shelter for people who are experiencing
homelessness.

The Day Center offers a safe daytime refuge to people living
on the streets of Tulsa County. Our basic human services
provide immediate assistance to women, men and families in
distress. Once people are able to meet their most pressing
needs, they can then take the next steps towards rebuilding
their lives.

Welcome to the Day Center

As clients enter the Day Center, they see a 23,000 square
foot, bright and inviting space that is welcoming, functional,
and yet not extravagant. People who are homeless are sheltered
with dignity and provided basic needs while helping them to
obtain community assistance, permanent housing and
self-sufficiency.

Night Shelter

While the Day Center is the only organization in Tulsa
providing shelter during the day, we also provide night
shelter for approximately 116 of the most vulnerable and
at-risk segment of the homeless population - women and
children, those men who suffer from mental or physical
illness and men over 55.

==============================================

The Tulsa Day Center for the Homeless is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Case Management
Clients work one on one with a Case Manager to identity their barriers to employment and housing. Case Managers provide resources and guidance to help a client develop an individual plan to return to an independent life.

The Day Center Case Management Staff consists of three General Case Managers, three Mental Health Case Managers and two Eviction Prevention Case Managers.

Community Voice Mail
Community Voice Mail provides personal voice mailboxes to clients. Having a personal phone number is crucial when filing out employment and housing applications. The voice mailbox is free and may be accessed from any telephone.

Day Center Clinic
The Clinic provides immediate medical care to people who are homeless. The Clinic is open Monday – Saturday mornings from 9:00 – 11:00AM, Tuesday and Thursday afternoons from 1:30 – 3:30PM and Wednesday evening from 4:30 – 7:30PM. Clients are seen on a first come, first served bases. All clients who sign up will be seen the same day.

Life Skills Classes
Life Skills Classes are offered twice per year as a means of breaking the cycle of re-entry into homelessness.
Topics Include:

* Health Care
* Housing
* Employment Application
* Resumes and Interviews
* Disaster Preparedness
* Personal Hygiene
* Risk Prevention
* Money Management
* Decision Making

Onsite Access to Other Service Providers
Outreach services from organizations offering services that address the needs of clients are given office space at the Day Center free of charge.

These agencies include:

* Social Security Administration
* 12&12 Center for Addiction Treatment and Recovery
* Tulsa Housing Authority
* Family and Children's Services

==============================================

Free clinic for homeless persons.

Terra called 1/23, talked to Sandra, the manager: we are OK. Have extra blankets but won't give blankets to sleep outside. We are the only place open. OK here, but you might check with places in the panhandle. Thanks so much for calling, it's nice to know someone from across the country cares.
