It is the mission of Marie Detty Youth Family Services Center, Inc. to provide a continuum of care for the children, youth, and families of Southwest Oklahoma. Prevention, diversion, protective, and treatment services establish the cornerstone of intervention. Additionally, we will advocate on behalf of children, youth, and families, on issues impacting our community.
Philosophy & Purpose
Marie Detty dedicates its programs and services to the belief that empowering families to resolve issues within a moral and responsible environment is the most effective path to promote healthy, productive citizens.
Support, advocacy, and intervention can assist families in providing the character, habits, and personal responsibility to help children and youth develop into capable individuals. Intervention allows individuals and families the opportunity to realize their full potential.
Service Areas
Marie Detty Youth & Family Services proudly serves the communities of Comanche, Jefferson, and Stephens counties!
Our Story
Our Marie Detty Youth & Family Services is named after Marie Detty, who was a supervisor in Child Welfare Services in the '60s and '70s. She saw the problems that young people faced and sought solutions. Over more than 30 years working in public welfare, she pushed for changes in how women were seen in leadership roles, how children were cared for and how our community responded to vulnerable residents.
