Tulsa Day Center anchors the Continuum of Care alongside Salvation Army Center of Hope and Mental Health Association Oklahoma's permanent supportive housing, providing day, emergency, and bridge shelter pathways citywide.
The Tulsa Continuum of Care, A Way Home for Tulsa, coordinates emergency shelter, transitional housing, and permanent supportive housing through Tulsa Day Center, Salvation Army Center of Hope, John 3:16 Mission, Family Safety Center for domestic violence, and Mental Health Association Oklahoma. Bridge housing is short-term shelter while clients await permanent units, often funded through HUD Continuum of Care grants and city general funds. Coordinated entry through Tulsa 211 prioritizes households by vulnerability score. Shelter operators set their own behavior, sobriety, and length-of-stay rules; the city does not impose a single bridge housing ordinance, instead supporting the network through Working in Neighborhoods.
Shelters may discharge clients for rule violations, but cannot retaliate against protected-class status. Misuse of HUD CoC funds triggers federal claw-backs and program termination.
