Supports visionary youth leaders who transform Oakland’s schools and communities through organizing, alliance building, creative arts, and leadership training. At Oakland Kids First, we create lasting cultural change that increases the supports and opportunities necessary for student success in Oakland schools through partnership and youth-driven ideas and action.
We believe that as a critical mass of young people take responsibility for themselves, for each other, and for their education they have the power to immediately improve student culture and school climate and organize more effectively with their peers to win long-term systemic changes.
