The Oklahoma GI Rights Hotline is a service of the Oklahoma Center for Conscience. The hotline offers free and confidential counseling by volunteers trained in military regulations and working under the guidance of an attorney who specializes in military law.
OCC (formerly known as Oklahoma Committee for Conscientious Objectors) was founded in 2004 and is supported by Joy Mennonite Church, Veterans for Peace of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Catholic Peace Fellowship and the Oklahoma City Religious Society of Friends.
OCC and the Oklahoma GI Rights Hotline are non-governmental organizations funded by community donations and private grants.
The GI Rights Hotline began operations on September 24, 2007. For more information, see the news release that announced its opening.
