By calling 232-OCHA, residents may report any resident or unit they believe is involved in any illegal activity. Caller may remain anonymous. The OCHA recognized the need for a security patrol as a preventative maintenance measure and the OCHA Security Department was established in 1974. Security is provided through uniformed guards who patrol on a regular basis to maintain a safe living environment for adults and children. A centralized phone number will secure assistance at any time, day or night.
Residents receive a copy with their monthly rent statements.
The purpose of the newsletter is to better inform residents and staff alike about ongoing activities, special events, OCHA policy, drug prevention information, and a format for recognition for individual accomplishment. OCHA Christmas parties are held for children ages 2 to 12 at each of the family developments. Each department sponsors and staffs a party, with games, refreshments, and face painting booths. Each child attending receives a Christmas stocking and a Polaroid picture taken on Santa's lap.
