Programs & Services

Free peer-to-peer, evidence-based program to help children and families heal

Peaceful Family Oklahoma provides education, self-care, healing and prevention services for children whose families are affected by addiction and separation, including their parents, grandparents, guardians and kinship families.

Who We Are

Peaceful Family Oklahoma is a nonprofit agency founded to break the cycle of addiction in families. This starts one child at a time and one family at a time.
Genetics play a role in addiction and children exposed to adverse childhood experiences are much more likely than other children to experiment with mood-altering chemicals.
The Peaceful Family Oklahoma's Children’s Program seeks to help children of multigenerational addiction heal, using proven strategies that teach children to play their way to understanding and health.

What We Do

Peaceful Family Oklahoma provides free programs year-round to children ages 7-12 and their guardians. PFO offers the only peer-to-peer program in Oklahoma specifically designed to help children affected by addiction in their families. Through education and celebrating the voices and feelings of children, we help break the cycle of addiction and foster healing and prevention.
PFO also provides a free continuing care group that allows the children and parents or guardians to reunite after the four-day program and continue to develop healthy coping skills.

What's Different

Peaceful Family Oklahoma focuses and builds upon children's strengths and deepens their resilience. Participating with peers makes them realize they are not alone, it is not their fault and they are not to blame. PFO provides a safe and age-appropriate environment for children to explore and express their anger, fear, hurt, guilt and shame.
PFO curriculum was developed by the US Department of Health and Human Services and is offered in Hazelden Betty Ford Clinics in Dallas, Los Angeles and Denver.
Best of all, PFO programs are offered FREE of charge, with the generous support of our donors and sponsors.
