The Oklahoma Family Network (OFN), in partnership with the Potts Family Foundation, is conducting a short survey for Washington County parents of children ages 0–5. The goal is to gather input on needs like housing, parenting support, and basic supplies to guide future community investments.
 
Renee Powell of OFN is leading local outreach, including events at the Bartlesville Public Library and Agape Mission, offering giveaways and entry into a drawing for a household gift basket and a Labor Day weekend family getaway to OKC. The survey closes August 1.
 
Powell, a mother of a child with hearing loss, turned her personal challenges into advocacy. OFN provides statewide peer support, free trainings, and resources for families of children with disabilities or special health needs. Upcoming programs include Toolbox Tuesday, mental health workshops, and sibling support events.
