✨ This holiday season, hope looks like showing up. ✨

The holidays can be joyful, but they can also be hard, especially for those walking the path of recovery. At OKC Metro Alliance, our Firstep programs meet people right where they are, offering stability, dignity, and a real chance to rebuild.

As we close out the year, we’re inviting our community to partner with us in meaningful ways:

🎄 Your gift makes a real impact

$20 helps cover daily essentials

$50 provides brand-new clothes and personal items for a resident arriving with nothing

$150 feeds one resident for an entire month

$1,000 helps create outdoor seating spaces for visitation and connection

$1,500 completes a long-needed basketball goal at Men’s Firstep

We’re also welcoming donations of gym equipment and stackable chairs that support daily recovery work.

Beyond giving, we encourage extra kindness this season. Check in on someone. Invite connection. Offer patience and grace. Small acts of care can make a big difference.

❤️ Give hope today. Help rebuild a life.

Our goal is to increase sobriety, decrease incarceration, and recover lives. OKCMA exists to provide unique and accessible recovery programs for all who want it. Every donation, large or small, helps build recovery capital needed for ...

Want a super easy way to support the amazing men and women in our Firstep programs this season? Our Amazon Wishlist is officially live and filled with everything our residents use every day. Essentials like clothing, hygiene products, and bedding. Comfort items like slippers and self care goodies. Even toys and gifts for their children along with a few fun things like 12 step coloring books.

We give every resident Christmas gifts, and we also make sure their children are celebrated too. This list makes it simple to jump in and help. If you feel inspired to give in another way, we accept unopened toy and gift donations by scheduled drop off. Call 405-232-1864 for more information.

We’re excited to add a Part Time Resident Advisor to our Women’s Firstep team!

If you’re passionate about supporting women in their recovery journey and love being a steady, encouraging presence, this could be the perfect fit. Women’s Firstep is a long term residential work recovery program where women rebuild stability, confidence, and community. Our Resident Advisors help make that possible.

What we’re looking for:
• Strong communication and a calm, supportive attitude
• Recovery experience or familiarity with similar programs is a plus
• Flexible availability, with most needs in the evenings and on weekends

If you believe in second chances and want to make a real difference, we’d love for you to apply.

Our door decorating contest was a blast and Women’s Firstep came out on top! Along with gift cards and a pizza lunch, they got to choose someone to take a pie to the face… and they picked our awesome Men’s Firstep Assistant Director, Nicolas Byers.

He was such a great sport and even managed to pie a few others back. It was hilarious and such a good reminder of how lucky we are to have a team that works hard, loves big, and still knows how to have fun together.

Congrats to Women’s Firstep and shoutout to Nicolas for the laughs! 🎉🥧💙

We’re so thankful for amazing community partners like DCCCA Oklahoma and Substance Use Prevention Alliance Oklahoma County!

Together, we’re building a stronger, safer community by ensuring life-saving resources like naloxone are available to those who need them. Every dose of naloxone represents a potential life saved—and every life saved represents another chance at recovery. Partnerships like this make a real difference every single day. 💙

Thank you so much OKC Metro Alliance, Inc. for picking up naloxone and helping save lives! We appreciate all our community partners and the collaborative support to best serve Oklahoma.

If you'd like to have some naloxone on hand, you can order your free kit from okimready.org

We love seeing our partners at Oklahoma Treatment Court celebrating the power of recovery and second chances!

Our very own Men’s Firstep Program Assistant, Devan (pictured below) has bravely shared his story at several Treatment Court events and during our own Beans & Cornbread luncheon. His honesty, courage, and heart for helping others continue to inspire everyone around him.

We couldn’t be prouder to have him representing Men’s Firstep and the strength of recovery in action! 💪💙
