The OFCA is a leadership forum that operates on this same principle. It provides a way for organizations operating in the state of Oklahoma to share information and help each other advance the cause of families affected by autism. The OFCA is a resource and leadership forum for group leaders in Oklahoma who have a passion to serve their communities.

The Piece Walk was born to give Oklahoma families affected by autism a day of togetherness, a day to support awareness in our state, and a means to support Oklahoma autism programs. The Piece Walk planning committee is a group of volunteers, many with experience in fundraising, logistics, and community involvement. The OFCA aims for the Piece Walk to be their signature annual event that will allow them to give back to Oklahoma communities in supporting the statewide autism conference, grants to Oklahoma Schools, grants to Oklahoma parent-led support groups, and Oklahoma based research.
