  • Emergency Summit on Mental Illness, Substance Abuse, and Criminal Justice Thursday, November 10, 2005 8:30 A.M
    Emergency Summit on Mental Illness, Substance Abuse, and Criminal Justice Thursday, November 10, 2005 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. OVERVIEW Please join the collaborative effort to bring together community members and relevant public and private professionals to address issues relating to mental illness, substance abuse, and the Oklahoma criminal justice system. The Oklahoma Department of Corrections indicates 72 percent of incarcerated females and 32 percent of incarcerated males in our state have mental health needs. Of those individuals with a mental illness, 57 percent were incarcerated for non-violent offenses. The Oklahoma County Jail, on any given day, may have as many as 500 persons with a mental illness in the jail population. A systematic approach must be developed to address criminal justice issues relating to appropriate non-violent offenders with a mental illness or substance abuse disorder. At this Summit, nationally known experts and Oklahoma leaders will present facts that will help us enhance and expand our work on evidence-based programs, practices, and policies for non-violent offenders who have substance abuse, mental illness, or co-occurring disorders. PURPOSE STATEMENT The Summit’s purpose is to engage communities in establishing alternatives to incarceration for persons with mental illness, substance abuse, and co-occurring disorders and to promote development of strategies for reintegrating these individuals into the community. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Develop an action plan to be distributed to the Legislature and relevant agencies that will serve as a vehicle for systems change. Describe target populations appropriate for alternatives to incarceration and reintegration programs. Review and expand upon work begun by the Governor’s and Attorney General’s Task Force on Mental Illness, Substance Abuse and Domestic Violence.

More than 10,000 prehistoric sites are recorded for the state, and they are estimated to represent about 10 percent of the actual number, according to archaeologist Don G. Wyckoff.

  • Jim Inhofe the Senior United States Senator from Oklahoma Recounts His Life Story
    Jim Inhofe The senior United States senator from Oklahoma recounts his life story. Chapter 1 — 1:27 Introduction Announcer: US Representative and Senator from Oklahoma, James Mountain Inhofe, was born in Des Moines, Iowa, on November 17, 1934. He grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he attended public schools and received a bachelor’s degree from the University of Tulsa. He served in the US Army and worked in aviation, real estate, and insurance for three decades. He was president of Quaker Life Insurance Company before entering politics. As a Republican, James Inhofe was elected to the Oklahoma House of Representatives in 1966, and became a state senator in 1968. He ran unsuccessfully for governor in 1974, and for the US House of Representatives in 1976. Inhofe was a three-term mayor of Tulsa from 1978 to 1984. In 1986, running again for the US House from the First District, he was elected and reelected three more times. In 1994, when Senator David Boren resigned to become President of the University of Oklahoma, Inhofe ran for Boren’s seat in a special election and won.
