Built on conviction.
Run with excellence.
Arise Oklahoma began with a simple observation: the people most in need of a stable home — veterans coming off the street, citizens coming home from incarceration, teenagers aging out of foster care — are the people the housing market serves least. We decided to change that, one professionally managed home at a time.
We are a faith-driven housing enterprise operating in the Oklahoma City metro. Our model pairs safe, structured, supportive housing with real programming — financial literacy, employment readiness, life skills, and community reintegration — so residents don't just find a roof. They find a way forward.
The work runs through two integrated entities: Arise Oklahoma Foundation, Inc., an Oklahoma nonprofit corporation carrying the mission, and Arise Oklahoma Housing Group, LLC, the operations side that holds our housing to professional standards. Mission and management, under one roof.
To transform the lives of homeless and at-risk veterans, individuals returning from incarceration, and youth aging out of foster care by providing safe, structured, supportive housing and comprehensive wraparound services — rooted in faith, fueled by community partnership, and committed to long-term self-sufficiency.
A state where no veteran sleeps outside, no returning citizen lacks a safe start, and no young person leaves foster care without a home and a future.
Our core values
Every person we serve is made in the image of God and deserves to be treated accordingly.
We hold ourselves to the highest standards of financial transparency and program integrity.
We believe people can and do change — and we build systems that prove it.
We do not accept mediocrity. Our housing, our programs, and our outcomes must be best-in-class.
Our work is grounded in the conviction that purpose, not profit, drives lasting transformation.
