Our Story

Oklahoma Life Skills Association was formed in August of 2002. OLSA is a federally granted 501c organization specifically designed to address early intervention, community inclusion and family support with an emphasis on very low to moderate income families who have a child with special needs. Our primary program is Special Kids Learning Center. OLSA is supported by our community, including the George Kaiser Family Foundation and the Zarrow Foundations and the Pediatric Health Care Fund. SPECIAL KIDS is a state-licensed, two star childcare center. The SPECIAL KIDS Learning Center strives to maintain a ratio of approximately 1/3 typical to 2/3 special needs children. SPECIAL KIDS offers before and after school care, nutrition, summer enrichment and community exploration. Additional programs include respite care, parent night out, advocacy, parent support group meetings, referral and resources and on site speech, occupational and physical therapy. SPECIAL KIDS Learning Center is Tulsa's only non-profit, special needs child-care facility. Special Kids Care is open M-F, 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.. How we make a difference: This month Special Kids welcomed four new families. This translates to four families who are now able to work and attend school because they have found a safe, loving place for their child. Imagine being the parent of a two year old who has been asked to leave 5 daycares. Imagine what that hurt means to your heart, your child's heart. Perhaps when all the children line up in neat rows your child is dancing joyously in the hallway. Perhaps they are non-verbal, or use a chair or are not potty trained or have a g-tube. Bottom line-you have to work and no one can care for your child. And then you find Special Kids- a place where we meet children where they are, love and accept them for who they are.

We need the help of our community to be able to be here for our families and children. We want Special Kids to be the last daycare our little two year old has to walk into. No more rejection. We want to be here to see him blossom and gain self confidence.

Please support us. As much as our families need us, we need you. Thank you!
