Online Support Groups Near Oklahoma City

Whether you are in Norman, Edmond, Moore, Yukon or somewhere else across the metro, ShareWell has live online support groups for people who left a small town and have not found a new one. Oklahoma City is where much of the state comes when it needs work, school or a hospital, and the first person in a family to make that move often does it without anyone who understands what it costs.

Every group meets online by live video, so you can join from home.

These online groups start during the day and evening in Central time, so they fit a day near Oklahoma City.

Local life

The first in the family to move to the city

A large share of the people in Oklahoma City grew up in a small town somewhere between the Panhandle and the Arkansas line, where everyone knew them and church, family and football filled the week. They came to the city for the university, the base, the hospitals or the energy companies, and found a place that spreads for miles and asks nothing of its neighbors. Family is two hours away and expects them home for every holiday, and calling to say the city is lonely feels like admitting the move was a mistake. Work in oil and gas rises and falls with prices nobody in town controls, which adds a layer of worry that is hard to explain to parents who farmed or taught school. People here are raised to handle things themselves, which is a strength right up until it is not.

Why it helps

How peer support helps near Oklahoma City

A peer group gives you a small, steady circle in a city that is short on them, with people who know what it means to leave somewhere small. You join from home in the metro or from a visit back to your hometown, and the group is the same either way.
