There are dinners.
And then there are evenings that unfold course by course.

At The Crown, Chef Eric Smith and his remarkable team are preparing one of those evenings.

A James Beard Award nominee known for inventive precision and bold restraint, Chef Eric composes menus that linger long after the final course. For this gathering, he is preparing a three-course dining experience, each thoughtfully paired with a signature cocktail, curated wine, or carefully crafted mocktail.

Three courses.
Three pairings.
One evening shaped with intention.

An evening defined by craft.
A table set with purpose.

Every seat supports long-term stability for children and families navigating interlocking legal, emotional, and economic challenges. Advocacy continues beyond the courtroom, and this Wednesday evening, it continues at the table.

Dine Like a Royal.

Join us at The Crown OKC. Seating is limited.

Black history is a story of community, of families supporting one another when systems fell short.

That legacy of care and advocacy is why OLFC believes stability is built in community, not granted by a single moment or decision.

This Black History Month, we have been reflecting on the responsibility we share to continue showing up with consistency, dignity, and care.

✨A new year creates space to pause before continuing forward.

We are taking a moment to reflect, reset, and prepare for the work ahead.

As the year unfolds, what are you hopeful for?📝

🎄✨ What. A. Night. ✨🎄
OLFC’s Twelve Days of Christmas was officially a holiday party for the books! Between the drummers drumming, pipers piping, hens serving full Parisian attitude, the COOP beer flowing, Kendra Scott sparkling, Derek Harris serenading, AND Abel Law Firm glowing like the Rockefeller tree… it was pure festive magic!
The best part? You made that magic.
You sang, cheered, ate, laughed and turned a Thursday night into a full-blown celebration of community and impact. And we can't thank you enough. ♥️
📸 Got photos? Of course you do.

Post them in the comments or email them to [email protected] . We want every ridiculous, beautiful moment.

From all of us at OLFC: thank you for making it a night worthy of all Twelve Days. 🥂✨
Same time next year? 😉

❄️Step into a little holiday magic with us at OLFC’s 12 Days of Christmas this Thursday, December 4, 2025 (5:30–9:00 PM) at Abel Law Firm!❄️

Think twinkle lights, warm laughs, and a room full of good humans singing through three spirited rounds of “The Twelve Days of Christmas.” 🎄

We’ll have hearty hors d’oeuvres for grazing, Derek Harris with musical ambiance, an open bar for beer and wine (with a cash bar for extra-festive spirits), and a sweet Holiday Card Station where you can jot a note of hope for OLFC families! 🎁

It’s free to attend this come-and-go kind of evening (we know the holiday calendar is busy), so pop in whenever you can for a toast, a bite, and some festive cheer. Come as you are and leave with a sprinkle of glitter on your sweater. 😉

Step Into the Song, Step Into the Season 12Days of Christmas At OLFC’s Twelve Days of Christmas, every verse gets its moment. We sing the song in rounds and cheer on the drummers, pipers, birds, and hens. As each verse comes to life, we welcome the Christmas season with music, sparkle, and the joy...

OLFC is thrilled to celebrate the opening of The Children’s Room in Oklahoma County—a warm, welcoming space created just for kids going through the court system.

This special room features books, toys, calming machines and more to help children feel safe and supported during an incredibly stressful time.

We’re so proud to have played a part in the creation of something that will help children feel secure. To check out KOCO’s coverage of the ribbon cutting, see the video below.

Oklahoma County has introduced The Children's Room, a safe space designed to support children navigating the court system.

June is Reunification Month, so what is reunification? 💭

Reunification is when children in foster care are safely reunited with their biological families.

While we focus on sharing the stories of adoption-eligible youth, we encourage reunification when possible.
