Twenty-five years ago, on September 11, 2001, our nation experienced a tragedy that forever changed us.

Today, the Rotary Club of Broken Arrow pauses to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, the families whose lives were forever changed, and the countless men and women who answered the call to serve in the years that followed.

We also remember the unity that emerged in the days after September 11. Americans came together to serve their neighbors, support their communities, and stand beside one another.

Twenty-five years later, may we continue to honor their memory not only with our words, but through service, kindness, and a commitment to our communities.

We remember. We honor. We will never forget.

Yesterday, the Rotary Club of Broken Arrow welcomed Tiffany Robinson, Founder and CEO of TRAP House Recovery.

TRAP House is a nonprofit organization providing safe, structured sober living for individuals in recovery, while helping residents build the skills and stability needed for long-term independence.

Tiffany shared how their 12-month β€œStepping Stones” program focuses on recovery, employment, accountability, financial responsibility, savings and ultimately securing permanent housing.

One message really stood out: the goal isn’t to keep residents dependent on the program. It’s to prepare them to leave successfully.

Thank you, Tiffany, for sharing the mission of TRAP House Recovery and the important work your organization is doing to help people move forward one stepping stone at a time.

Thank you to Kory Alford, Associate Head Coach for ORU Basketball, for joining the Rotary Club of Broken Arrow yesterday!

Coach Alford gave us a behind-the-scenes look at the operations of a Division I basketball program and the rapidly changing landscape of college athletics. He discussed NIL, roster limits, revenue sharing and the new financial realities facing athletic programs across the country.

One of the biggest takeaways was just how quickly things are changing. Coach Alford described the rules surrounding college athletics as changing β€œby the minute,” with programs constantly adapting to new requirements.

He also discussed how these changes impact more than just football and basketball. As athletic departments face increasing costs associated with revenue sharing and NIL, non-revenue sports such as tennis and others can feel the effects as well.

And there was a little fun mixed in! πŸ€ Rotarians had the opportunity to scan a QR code for a chance to win courtside tickets to an ORU basketball game! 🎟️

Thank you, Coach Alford, for an informative and timely presentation and for giving our club a look inside the changing world of college athletics!

Thank you to Jeremy Nichols with the David Restoration Program for joining the Rotary Club of Broken Arrow yesterday and sharing not only the mission of the organization, but his own powerful story of restoration.

The David Restoration Program provides rehabilitation and recovery services for nonviolent offenders through a model centered on structure, accountability, employment, recovery, life skills, and faith. The goal is to help participants build consistency, become financially responsible, restore relationships, and successfully transition back into the community.

Jeremy also shared how the program is turning costs into contributors by helping participants find full-time employment, pay down debts and legal obligations, support their families, build savings, and reduce recidivism.

We appreciate Jeremy for sharing his story with our club and for the work the David Restoration Program is doing to demonstrate that with the right structure, support, and opportunity, restoration truly is possible.

Thank you for spending your Monday with us! πŸ‘πŸ’™

Public Servant, Community Leader & Proud Rotarian

For Lisa Ford, public safety and strong community connections are the foundation of a thriving community.

Before being elected to the Broken Arrow City Council in 2021, Lisa spent 20 years as the Crime Prevention Specialist with the Broken Arrow Police Department, where she built innovative community policing programs, coordinated more than 250 volunteers, organized Citizens Police Academies, and worked to strengthen relationships between law enforcement and the community.

Her commitment to service extends far beyond public safety. Lisa has served as President of Broken Arrow Rotary, President of Broken Arrow Neighbors, President of the Broken Arrow Senior Center, Chair of Leadership Broken Arrow, and on numerous local, state, and national boards and committees. She currently serves in leadership roles with the National League of Cities, including President Women in Municipal Government, Co Chair Crime Prevention and Public Safety Committee and Local Indigenous Leaders.

Lisa’s dedication to community service has been recognized with numerous honors, including the Rotary Paul Harris Fellow, Community Advocate of the Year from the Broken Arrow Chamber of Commerce, the Oklahoma Buckle Down Awards’ Michael J. Garner Safety Advocate of the Year, and the Daughters of the American Revolution Community Service Award.

A proud member of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, Lisa is passionate about bringing people together, building safer communities, and serving others.

Lisa and her husband, State Representative Ross Ford, have been married for 46 years. They have two grown children and five grandchildren.

Service Above Self is more than a Rotary motto for Lisaβ€”it is a way of life.
