(Stillwater, Okla) — PCYS is limiting shelter admittance for new clients to the Payne County Area. Other shelters in the state are available for non-local kids.  We will access needs of other children on a case-by-case basis and are working  with the systems we serve to ensure children and youth receive appropriate care.

Our outpatient-administrative offices are closed.  PCYS is providing counseling services through secure electronic access.
Our staff is working from home and the phones and emails will be answered as always.
We are currently curtailing all volunteer programming and are unable to accept donations of clothing or used items at this time.
We can accept and would be grateful for donations of gift cards or you can call a restaurant and arrange for us to pick up or have delivered take out orders for shelter and TLP residents.  We have plenty of food but as our kids are stuck at home some takeout would help keep them entertained.   Please call us ahead so we know.
For TLP delivery, we will coordinate with you so we can provide the delivery address directly to the restaurant.
New games and art supplies would also be great  Please don’t be offended when we meet you on the porch.
You can also donate Girl Scout Cookies from a local Troop 7069

Stay safe, everyone !  Let us know if we can help
