Family preservation and prevention support before crisis

Prevention matters deeply. Many families are not lacking love for their children. They are lacking support, stability, resources, transportation, community, or someone in their corner. When those gaps go unaddressed, stress can build until a family reaches a breaking point.

Fundraisers & Events for Foster Families

We want to make resources as available as possible for our community. If you're in need, we have community events throughout the year for you. And if you're wanting to sponsor or donate, check out our fundraising events!

Practical resources for foster families

Consider the Lilies works to help fill those gaps before crisis escalates to child removal whenever safely possible. We believe communities can come together to strengthen families and preserve connections.

Help with transportation, housing stability, childcare, and basic needs

Prevention support can include connecting families to practical resources, helping them find community support, and assisting with barriers that make everyday life harder. Transportation challenges, unstable housing, lack of childcare, job instability, and limited access to basic needs can all create pressure that impacts the whole family.

Compassionate family support with dignity

We are committed to walking alongside families in NE Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas with compassion and dignity. We do not believe in shaming families for being in a hard season. We believe in meeting people where they are and helping them take the next step.

Get prevention support or partner with a family nonprofit

If you are a parent or caregiver who needs help, reach out. You do not have to wait until things fall apart to ask for support. If you are a community member who wants to help prevent family crisis, you can donate, volunteer, or partner with us to meet tangible needs.
