Levels of Care

The continuum of care model at White Fields is what truly makes our organization unique. In a nutshell, it is a model where a child may receive all of his required care and treatment at one single campus, White Fields. There is no other program in place like ours in Oklahoma. Too often a child will “age out” or improve and then be transferred to a different facility where they are better equipped to handle that particular child. This is not the case at White Fields. We are fully prepared and equipped to help a child from the time he arrives at White Fields until adulthood. Why is this so important? We believe that stability and consistency paired with the right kind of treatment and care enables a child to feel safe again, allowing him the chance to lead a normal life. We believe that a child that knows that he has a permanent place to call home and people he can call family will be able to trust, face the dark issues of his past and begin to heal.

The 3 levels of care offered at White Fields are the D+, C and Foster care programs. The D+ level of care requires 24 hour awake care staff. It is a high level of care where the boys are supervised around the clock. All boys initially are placed in this care and receive all of the love, treatment and support imaginable. The C level of care allows a boy to live in a home like setting with house parents. While they are still supervised heavily, it is not 24 hour awake care and feels more like a home environment. They still continue to receive the same therapy and treatment as in the D+ level of care. The Foster Care program is our lowest level of care. The boy, indeed, becomes part of a family and receives all the privileges that a normal boy his age receives.
