About Live Free Oklahoma

Live Free Oklahoma is on the frontlines of building safer, healthier communities—free from gun violence, mass incarceration, and systemic injustice. Your donation powers our work to uplift the voices of those most impacted, organize faith communities for change, and build sustainable solutions rooted in love, justice, and freedom.

Violence Intervention & Outreach

Through trained PeaceMakers, Live Free Oklahoma provides on-the-ground intervention to de-escalate conflicts, mediate disputes, and prevent cycles of retaliation. These credible messengers are community members with lived experience who can build trust where traditional systems cannot.

Community Healing & Support Services

Beyond crisis response, Live Free Oklahoma connects individuals and families with essential resources such as mental health support, housing assistance, and employment pathways. The goal is not just to stop violence in the moment but to address the root causes that make communities vulnerable.

Community Engagement & Advocacy

Live Free Oklahoma organizes events like the Peace Needs Conference and Peace Expo to bring neighbors, leaders, and service providers together. In addition, the organization advocates for policies that prioritize prevention, equity, and justice over punishment, helping to shift the systems that shape public safety in Oklahoma.
