Supporting Kids in Independent Living

The SKIL program offers support for high school students who, for reasons beyond their control, live on their own without any financial or emotional help from parents.  Their parents may be abusive, neglectful, addicted, incarcerated, deceased or homeless themselves.   By providing food, toiletries, counseling, life skills education, and emergency financial assistance, SKIL ensures that these students receive the resources they need in order to earn their high school diploma. We are reducing the Oklahoma high school drop-out rate every day! 

Most of our clients receive free breakfast and lunch at their schools.  With school out for the summer, they often go without these meals.  Click here to learn how you can help by contributing to our SKIL Pantry or here for a back-to-school supplies shopping list.
