Background

Neighborhood Services Organization (NSO) is a faith-based non-profit social services agency providing housing and healthcare opportunities for low-income and at-risk individuals and families in the Oklahoma City area.

Founded in 1920 by Methodist women, who named their new venture Wesley Community House, the primary focus was on the Riverside neighborhood in south Oklahoma City. The founders sought to make a positive difference in the lives of impoverished, post-WWI families, many of which were immigrant families. In 1946, an additional community center location was added in northeast Oklahoma City to serve African-American families. In 1969, these two entities joined with Neighborhood Centers, Inc. a non-profit organization with multiple locations in the metro area. After the merger they became one entity: Neighborhood Services Organization, which is commonly called “NSO.” 

As NSO has evolved it has been creative in the way it assists low-income Oklahoma City residents, always willing to change as society’s needs dictated. Several NSO programs have been spun off as separate and highly successful non-profits: Detox Center, Regional Food Bank, Mobile Meals and Positive Tomorrows.     

Today, our focus is on: (1) Helping homeless persons and those at risk of homelessness−from youths to seniors−secure housing or keep from losing their current homes; (2) Providing uninsured citizens with access to quality low-cost dental care; and, (3) Delivering nutrition education information, counseling and supplemental foods to young mothers during the critical phases of infant growth and development. Last year, our eight program sites recorded a combined 72,000 client visits.
Impact
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
 
Capital Campaign
In 2015 we completed our first-ever capital campaign. This $2.5M campaign was a success. The funding we secured will help us better meet the needs of our clients by efficiently maximizing our resources.
 
Dental Services Expanded
Our low-cost dental clinic is one of the community's greatest assets. Hiring a dental hygienist and maximizing our resources has allowed us to increase our dental services to uninsured Oklahomans 33% from 2014 to 2015.
 
Infrastructure
We recently procured a comprehensive client case manager software package. This will help us in several critical areas: service to our clients will be more systematic and better coordinated, we will have the ability to track client outcomes across service platforms, and we will have the ability to comprehensively analyze massive amounts of data.
 
New Headquarters
In 2015 we moved into a new building that is home to our administrative offices, and our WIC and Dental Clinics. We now have many of our services centrally located which allows us to better serve our community. We are grateful and excited about this beautiful space and the opportunity to serve our clients and community.
 
Website updated
Our website was "remodeled" in 2016. Our website is fresh and information is easy to locate for all constituents: clients, donors, volunteers, partners, and community members.
 
Increase community awareness of NSO
Despite being around for nearly a century and serving some 72,000 people each year, the community is still not aware of NSO. While we have improved, we recognize there is much work to be done.
Needs

1. Comprehensive wrap-around services integration: $75,000

2. Dental outreach and screenings at high-risk local schools: $35,000

3. Furniture for transitional and permanent housing programs: $50,000

4. Maintenance for housing facilities: $50,000

5. Housing for young men who have aged out of OK Foster Care: $150,000
CEO/Executive Director Statement
NSO is unique in services we provide - both in the type of services provided and the broad scope of services.
 
We are not a homeless shelter. Instead, we provide temporary and permanent housing solutions to people who are homeless or at risk of imminent homelessness.
 
Our programs are not just a short-term "band-aid" fix, we offer solutions that will lead to life-long self-sufficiency.
 
We have eight properties around the city to best meet our clients' needs. This is an exciting agency, impacted 72,000 community members last year.

Program Short-term SuccessHelpDescription of short-term achievement(s) or improvement(s) that will result from this program. Better nutrition, better health, children more likely to be on-track developmentally when early nutrition needs are met, reduction of preventable birth defects, increased safety, hunger prevention, healthy pregnancies, infant health, increase in breastfeeding rates and length of time infants are breastfed.
Program Long-term SuccessHelpDescription of the ultimate change(s) that will result from this program. This may be far into the future or represent an ideal state. Ultimate change is long-term impact on the public health of the Oklahoma City area community. Served some 60,000 area residents through our programs.
Program Success MonitoringHelpDescription of the tools used to measure or track program impact. The WIC program has very specific guidelines and reporting structures through the Dept of Agriculture, which funds the program. These include number of people served, participation in education nutrition classes, breastfeeding rates and duration, as well as other outcomes.
Examples of Program SuccessHelpSpecific examples of changes in behaviors or testimonies of changes that demonstrate program success. NSO's WIC Clinics have traditionally received the highest possible ratings for outcomes and effective management. In fact, our WIC Clinics were deemed "model programs" that other programs should attempt to emulate. 
Low-Cost Dental Clinic
Description NSO's Low-Cost Dental Clinic provides a wide array of dental services -- from prevention and education to acute care. Services are offered at cost -- typically about half of what a private dentist would charge. Annually, we provide about 6,000 procedures to 2,000 patients. Most patients are the working poor - fiercely proud to pay their own way but uninsured and unable to pay the high price of private care.
BudgetHelpSome organizations have unified budgeting and do not budget by program. Because of this, some budget fields may be blank or represent an approximation.

Program Short-term SuccessHelpDescription of short-term achievement(s) or improvement(s) that will result from this program. 100% of our patients receive the dental care they need.
Program Long-term SuccessHelpDescription of the ultimate change(s) that will result from this program. This may be far into the future or represent an ideal state. The long-term success of the Low-Cost Dental Clinic can be measured in an improvement in the public health of our community. As the vital links between oral health and overall health continue to be uncovered, the impact of our services on the entire community are recognized. Oklahoma ranks dead last in the nation in the adults who regularly visit a dentist. With the success of the NSO Low-Cost Dental Clinic, we hope to impact that ranking.
Program Success MonitoringHelpDescription of the tools used to measure or track program impact. We measure success through the number of patients we see and the number of procedures we complete.
Examples of Program SuccessHelpSpecific examples of changes in behaviors or testimonies of changes that demonstrate program success.
Our patients often send us letters of thanks for the services they receive. An example of the impact of the program success can be seen in this letter from Mike (letter used with permission):

When you have missing teeth, people look down on you. Missing front teeth makes you have a speech problem and people think you are mentally unstable. I am a people person but when you talk to people and your words don’t come out right you really don't want to talk much.

NSO has lifted my self-esteem. The work they have done on my mouth has made a big difference in my whole spirit. I feel like I can be myself and my words come out right. My brother said, “Now that’s the Mike I remember!” Now I can smile, and when you smile, people smile back at you.

NOW THAT’S PRICELESS!

 

I want to thank NSO from the top of my gums to the bottom of my teeth. Ya’ll really put confidence back in my life. Please keep up the good work. Changing their appearance and their whole outlook on life—that’s what it did for me. May GOD BLESS YOU ALL.!

Thank you!

 

 

 

 
Transitional Living Programs
Description
NSO has three Transitional Living Programs (TLPs):
Martha's House: This TLP has seven, three-bedroom apartments for families (primarily mothers and children). 
Gatewood Home: This TLP is an apartment building with four, one-bedroom apartments. Women who are pregnant or have one young child live there.
Carolyn Williams Center - is a TLP for young men aged 18-23. Many have aged-out of the foster care system. 
 
All TLPs share some common features: clients must be homeless or at-risk of imminent homelessness to qualify. Most stay in the TLP from 6-24 months while they increase their household income, finish their education, seek entitlements to which they are eligible, complete life skills education, receive the health care they need, and receive daily counseling and mentoring on how to live independently. 
BudgetHelpSome organizations have unified budgeting and do not budget by program. Because of this, some budget fields may be blank or represent an approximation.

Program Short-term SuccessHelpDescription of short-term achievement(s) or improvement(s) that will result from this program.
100% of our clients work with staff to complete a transitional housing life plan - expressing their goals, hopes and dreams and a realistic plan to achieve them.
 
Other short-term outcomes are measured by the number of clients who say they feel safe, are able to provide for themselves/children, have food security, have increased their income, and feel they are able to live independently.
Program Long-term SuccessHelpDescription of the ultimate change(s) that will result from this program. This may be far into the future or represent an ideal state. Long-term success is measured by the number of clients who are able to maintain independence in permanent housing. NSO has recently procured a comprehensive client case manager software package that will better help us track and coordinate services and track outcomes across the organization.
Program Success MonitoringHelpDescription of the tools used to measure or track program impact. NSO conducts regular surveys of clients to determine their outcomes. In addition, NSO reviews the specific goals of each client to determine how many of their outcomes have been achieved. However, NSO seeks to update its outcomes for all programs in the next year.
Examples of Program SuccessHelpSpecific examples of changes in behaviors or testimonies of changes that demonstrate program success.

Jacob’s mom and dad were alcoholics and drug addicts.Every few months, they moved from one filthy apartment to the next. Food was never a priority. When Jacob was six, he watched his father shoot and kill his mother. Things got bad after that.

Jacob was placed in the custody of a relative. That relative sexually abused Jacob. Every. Single. Day.

Jacob entered Oklahoma’s Foster Care system. He doesn’t remember how many homes he lived in. He doesn’t remember teachers or classmates – he changed schools and homes too often to bother developing relationships.

On his 18thbirthday, Jacob was ineligible for foster care. He was set on the street with an incomplete education, no family, no friends, no job and no coping skills. He ended up sleeping on the streets.

Jacob is a resident at the Carolyn Williams Center – and his story is not unusual. Today, he is enrolled in college. He says the CWC is the first real home he has had. Jacob not only envisions his future but he is looking forward to it.
Palo Duro
Description Palo Duro is a permanent supportive housing program for chronically homeless adults with mental illnesses. Adults live in and maintain their own private apartment, but receive daily supervision from staff members to ensure their medical, physical and social needs are being met. Located across the street, psychiatric clinic staff ensure residents receive their medications and treatments regularly. They watch for signs of crises and are typically able to avert problems before they happen. Turnover at Palo Duro is low -- the residents build a cohesive community of peers, and regular social events help them remain active and making friends.

Program Short-term SuccessHelpDescription of short-term achievement(s) or improvement(s) that will result from this program. Short-term success is measured through occupancy rates and tenant satisfaction surveys.
Program Long-term SuccessHelpDescription of the ultimate change(s) that will result from this program. This may be far into the future or represent an ideal state. It's estimated that 25% of homeless people have a diagnosed mental illness. This leads to expensive treatment, incarceration, shelter, medical care and even death. A program like Palo Duro not only keeps these adults off the street and living productive lives, it lowers the cost of their lifelong care to the community.
Program Success MonitoringHelpDescription of the tools used to measure or track program impact. Program success is monitored through internal records as well as regular surveys of tenants. We also gather qualitative feedback from tenants on a daily basis to assess their progress.

Homeless Prevention Programs
Description
Homeless Prevention Programs
NSO has several homeless prevention programs: 
The Emergency Assistance Program provides on-time financial assistance to individuals and families who are experiencing a real emergency. In these cases, only a few hundred dollars will keep the family from becoming homeless. Emergencies include loss of job, illness or accident, natural disasters and extraordinary utility bills (such as were experienced last summer).  NSO makes referrals to families who need additional assistance or why may not qualify for the program.
 
Permanent Supportive Housing - the TLP follow-up program. This new program follows clients who have left the TLPs and helps them the first critical months that they are living independently. Staff are able to counsel with clients on selecting appropriate housing, making deposits and having utilities turned on, working with landlords and household management. 
BudgetHelpSome organizations have unified budgeting and do not budget by program. Because of this, some budget fields may be blank or represent an approximation.

Program Short-term SuccessHelpDescription of short-term achievement(s) or improvement(s) that will result from this program. Short-term success is measured by the number of people assisted. Each program has its own outcomes as well, which are measured through internal records as well as feedback from clients.
Program Long-term SuccessHelpDescription of the ultimate change(s) that will result from this program. This may be far into the future or represent an ideal state. Long term success is measured by impacting the homeless population in our community.
Program Success MonitoringHelpDescription of the tools used to measure or track program impact. Internal records and feedback from clients.
Examples of Program SuccessHelpSpecific examples of changes in behaviors or testimonies of changes that demonstrate program success.
Because the permanent supportive housing program is new, there are no success stories yet. However, we have hundreds of success stories from our Emergency Assistance Program. 
 
2011 was a record year for Oklahoma. The poor economy continued to impact our community but a record number of natural disasters had a huge impact on the working poor. In the course of one year, our community experience record cold temperatures, blizzards, tornadoes, record high temperatures, wild fires and even earthquakes.
 
People who considered themselves financially stable found themselves on the brink of homelessness because of record utility bills, home repairs and poor economic opportunities. 
 
Thanks to NSO's one-time emergency assistance, hundreds of families avoided homelessness - saving our community millions of dollars in the costs of sheltering and caring for them.
