Where exactly is Westview located?
Hollis, Oklahoma serves as Westview’s hometown. Here, in the central plains of the United States, we are surrounded by wide open spaces. Our offices and commissary are located in downtown Hollis (the county seat of Harmon County), while the larger campuses are spread throughout the county.
There is one home on our campus one mile south and two miles west of Hollis, two homes on our original campus four miles west of Hollis, and three homes on our campus eleven miles north of the city limits. The northern portion of our campus is spread out, covering an area of over one and one-half square miles. Most of our homes are at least one-quarter of a mile apart. Our ranch has 1,500 acres of space and over 16 miles of fences.

Our rural environment presents great opportunities
This rural community serves as a great place to raise children. We worship with the Childress Church of Christ and our boys attend Hollis Public Schools. There are also potential jobs available in and around Hollis for boys who prove themselves to be responsible.
Our rural setting presents many wonderful opportunities for boys. Hunting, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, bicycle trips, and caring for 4-H and FFA livestock projects are just a few of the activities that are available to boys in our wide open spaces.
Though we are in a rural area of the country, we are within reach of larger cities such as Amarillo, Texas (two hours); Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (three hours); Wichita Falls, Texas (two hours); and Lawton, Oklahoma (one and one-half hours). Smaller cities, like Altus, Oklahoma and Childress, Texas are closer still (35 minutes).
To some, Hollis may seem a bit remote. Yet, due to our centralized location in the middle of the country, we have been called upon to provide care for boys from coast to coast. Most of our boys, however, come from Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Colorado, and New Mexico.
