Owasso, OK (Feb. 3rd) - Republican Dr. Kevin Norwood filed his candidacy papers to serve Oklahomans living in House District 74, a region which includes Tulsa County, portions of Rogers County and the entire City of Owasso. The Republican special primary election will take place on Tuesday, April 1, 2025.
For over three decades, Dr. Kevin Norwood has worked with Owasso community youth, mentoring, assisting in navigating challenging stressors in school, work, and social lives, teaching skillsets that now serve many of those individuals as they have in turn taken on leadership roles in our community, their families, and in business across our region. He has honed a key focus of developing positive mental health for teens in leading multiple businesses and service organizations across our state and region, including Wired Inc, Curate Hope, Xtreme Ministries, and building extensive youth programs for churches and taking his message of hope and transforming the future to young people at hundreds of school assemblies.
Not only has Kevin transformed lives from the inside out, he has also worked tirelessly in efforts to transform Owasso into a beautiful home for the entire community. His work on Keep Owasso Beautiful led to recognition statewide as a Keep Oklahoma Beautiful Environmental Excellence Affiliate Champion, and he is an award winning Leader of Owasso Cares, supporting the Owasso Strong Neighborhood Initiative - which encourages community volunteer efforts.
“In thirty years of working with all ages and all walks of life - I have learned that success comes from meeting people where they are, and then working alongside them in bringing ideas to life, identifying skills, and creating opportunities that foster success,” stated Norwood. In every project that I have been honored to be a part of, I have concentrated not only on the desired outcomes but also on a step-by-step approach that prioritizes the well-being of both the individuals and every aspect of the process involved. I am so proud of Owasso, knowing our community and the people that make it a destination for families to call home - and I intend to champion our community and reflect our conservative Oklahoma values. I will work to create a vibrant economy, a low tax environment, safe communities, strong infrastructure, excellence in schools, and community and family initiatives.”
Kevin earned his Doctor of Leadership degree in Leadership and Global Perspectives from Portland Seminary at George Fox University in Portland, Oregon. Prior to his Doctorate, Kevin earned a bachelor's degree in Pastoral Ministry from Southwestern Christian University in Bethany, Oklahoma, and a master's degree in Applied Theology from Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
