Northwest Family Services

Northwest Family Services NFS strives to serve the youth, schools, and community through counseling, parenting, healthy living, foster care, and other community resources.

Northwest Family Services, Inc. was established as a Youth and Family Services program in Alva, Oklahoma, in 1976 under the sponsorship of a citizen's group interested in meeting the needs of children and families in Northwest Oklahoma. Since its inception NFS has continued to grow and expand its services and is now recognized as a member of the Oklahoma Association of Youth Services and as a CARF Accredited provider of counseling services. It is the belief and philosophy of NFS that by concentrating the agency's objectives toward an enhancement of behaviors that fall within the bounds of social appropriateness, and by increasing interpersonal and self-awareness, both the present and future lives of children and families seeking help will be enabled and enriched. Therefore, the agency's programs are designed to address the issues of juvenile delinquency, drug and alcohol prevention/ education, family discord, parents, limited knowledge base as well as other concerns that are identified and/ or brought to the attention of NFS.
