Welcome to Marie Detty!

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, families, and on issues impacting our communities.

 We believe that empowering families to address challenges in a supportive and responsible environment is key to nurturing healthy, productive citizens. Through compassionate support, advocacy, and intervention, we help families build strong character, positive habits, and personal responsibility. Our goal is to give every individual and family the opportunity to reach their fullest potential. 

 Marie Detty Youth & Family Services is named in honor of Marie Detty, a trailblazer in Child Welfare Services during the 1960s and 70s. With over 30 years in public welfare, she worked to improve care for children, expand leadership opportunities for women, and strengthen support for vulnerable families. Her legacy continues to guide our mission today.
