Deep Fork Self-Help Housing is a unique program that assists eligible income-based applicants in obtaining mortgages to build high-quality, energy-efficient homes in Okmulgee, OK. Established in 1988, the program has helped over 600 families become proud homeowners by providing housing opportunities for very low to low-income households. Funded by the United States Department of Agriculture Rural Development, the program offers a 33-year mortgage to build homes ranging from 1,200 to 1,500 square feet, including the option for a one or two-car garage. With no down payment requirement, qualified families contribute sweat equity to keep construction costs low, resulting in brand new, energy-efficient homes at an affordable cost. Deep Fork Self-Help Housing acts as the counseling agency and provides technical assistance throughout the construction process.Generated from the website

The Youth Emergency Shelter, established in 1971, provides essential community-based services, including emergency shelter, counseling, and foster care, to children in need across Pittsburg, McIntosh, and Latimer Counties. Governed by a local Board of Directors, the shelter aims to prevent children and their families from entering the juvenile justice system while ensuring a safe environment for those whose lives have been threatened. With a focus on supporting at-risk youth, the shelter operates two emergency shelters located in McAlester and Eufaula, and offers programs such as the FAITH Foster Care Program. The organization actively seeks volunteers and donations to enhance its services and support the well-being of the children it serves. Generated from the website
