The Oklahoma Family Support 360° Center serves families that have children with developmental disabilities and Medicaid Eligibility. Funding constraints limit the 360° Center's acceptance of new families to 28 per ear. The 360° Center maintains an active enrollment of over 80 families and the majorities of these families are Hispanic and speak Spanish as a primary language.
