A Better Way in Norman

A Better Way: Opportunity Knocks in Norman was made possible through a collaboration between the City of Norman and Mental Health Association Oklahoma.
How It Works
Through roving van outreach, A Better Way makes stops at targeted “hot spot” areas known for panhandling and homelessness, including pedestrian walkways, medians and overpasses.
The van operates three days a week.
A Better Way offers change by:
- Giving people who panhandle and may be experiencing homelessness an opportunity to work.
- Paying participants a day’s wages to beautify our communities.
- Connecting participants to sustainable employment and life-changing services such as food, clothing, shelter, housing, physical and mental healthcare and more.
