Palomar

What Palomar does

Palomar, legally Oklahoma City Family Justice Center Inc., is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization operating as Oklahoma City's Family Justice Center (FJC) since its grand opening in February 2017. The organization provides free, confidential, trauma-informed wraparound services to survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, human trafficking, child abuse, and elder abuse, as well as their children, at a single walk-in facility at 1140 N Hudson Ave, Oklahoma City. Since founding, Palomar has served approximately 24,000 cumulative clients and currently serves 5,000-6,000 per year, drawing on a network of 48 on-site partner agencies.

Its core product is not a technology platform but a coordinated, in-person service hub offering legal assistance (Victim Protective Orders, custody, divorce, immigration), individual and group counseling, emergency support (shelter, food, transportation), children's services (Children's Sanctuary, Camp HOPE), an Animal Advocacy Program (foster, vet, deposits), holistic healing (yoga, Reiki), strangulation education, and digital safety education. The architecture is a "one-stop shop" FJC model licensed from Alliance for HOPE International under a contract signed in June 2015; technology plays a supporting, not lead, role with no proprietary software, APIs, or AI/ML components disclosed.

The business model is a hybrid nonprofit funding stack: (1) charitable donations from individuals, organizations, and foundations, (2) government grants, most notably Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) federal funding that has materially declined (Oklahoma VOCA allocations dropped from $29M in 2018 to $10.3M in 2025), and (3) one-time municipal capital allocations, specifically a $42 million MAPS 4 Family Justice Center under construction (groundbreaking May 2025, opening spring 2027). All services to clients are free; pricing/billing does not apply. Distribution is purely physical walk-in plus a 24/7 hotline, with referrals from 48 partner agencies, law enforcement (OKCPD, Oklahoma County Sheriff), DHS, and the District Attorney's Office. Governance is provided by a Board of Directors chaired by Tricia Everest, with founder Kim Garrett-Funk serving as Chief Visionary Officer.

Revenue model

1. Donations and Charitable Contributions: Palomar relies on charitable donations from individuals, organizations, and foundations to fund operations. The organization is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
2. VOCA Federal Funding: Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) funding was previously the largest federal funding source for Palomar. Due to declining federal funding from VOCA, the organization has faced significant budget constraints. VOCA funding for Oklahoma's victim-serving organizations declined from $29 million in 2018 to $10.3 million in 2025.
3. MAPS 4 Funding: The MAPS 4 package allocated funds to build a new Palomar facility. Ground was broken in May 2025 on the $42 million MAPS 4 Family Justice Center, set to open in spring 2027.

Product overview

Palomar is a single, unified Family Justice Center that serves as a central hub where survivors of abuse and violence can access multiple services in one safe location. Rather than a platform-plus-modules architecture, Palomar offers an integrated suite of services including crisis intervention, legal assistance, children's services, therapeutic programs, and specialized advocacy (animal, housing, legal). All services are provided free of charge through a coordinated network of on-site partner agencies and Palomar's own staff, unified under the goal of providing protection, hope, and healing to survivors.
