Oklahoma Revitalizes Be A Neighbor Platform

Oklahoma City, OK – During his first term, Governor Stitt called for a simpler way for Oklahomans to find help in their communities. Building on this vision, the state of Oklahoma announced today the relaunch of Be A Neighbor, an updated, easy-to-use website connecting Oklahomans with local resources across all 77 counties.

Originally launched in 2020 with Oklahoma Human Services, Be A Neighbor has grown through collaboration with the Oklahoma Health Care Authority with the goal of including numerous other state agencies. By partnering with Findhelp technology, a platform for coordinated social care, the relaunched site offers an improved user experience and expanded access to community-based resources available throughout the state, making it easier for Oklahomans to find help close to home.

“We’re empowering our neighbors to support each other at the community-level to create a better future for all four million Oklahomans,” said Governor Stitt. “This collaboration reflects the commitment of state agencies to connect people with resources in their communities. Oklahoma is a state where neighbors care for each other, and there is always hope for tomorrow.”

Through the Be A Neighbor platform, users can enter their zip code to search through free or reduced-cost resources, including financial assistance, food pantries, medical care and more. Oklahomans can also suggest programs for inclusion in the database, including those offered by non-profits, faith-based organizations or tribes.   

The Be A Neighbor platform is available now at BeANeighbor.org.
