Welcome Message

Welcome to occjok.org, the new online home of the Oklahoma Center for Community and Justice (OCCJ).

OCCJ is the only organization in Oklahoma with the singular mission of fighting bias, bigotry and racism. The non-profit organization has a very proud and significant history beginning with the founding of the Tulsa chapter of the National Conference of Christians and Jews (NCCJ) in 1958 and continuing as OCCJ beginning in 2005.

OCCJ’s many ongoing programs focus on advancing interracial, interreligious and intercultural dialogue among adults and youth, encouraging healthy human relations within the community.

If you feel deeply about reducing prejudice and discrimination in our society, and increasing understanding and respect among people of all races, religions and cultures, we hope you will consider joining OCCJ as a member. Your support will help underwrite the programs and work that bring our important mission to life.

William O'Connor
OCCJ Board President
