Our Mission:
Oakland Rising educates & mobilizes voters in the flatlands to speak up for & take charge of the issues impacting our lives. We are a multilingual, multiracial collaborative with deep roots in East & West Oakland's neighborhoods, proving that everyday residents working together have the power to change the way our city is run. With longtime Oakland families & our newest neighbors working shoulder to shoulder, we are building on Oakland’s incredibly rich history to advance smart, community-first solutions for a thriving Town.
Our work focuses on 3 major goals to develop critical infrastructure necessary to build progressive power in Oakland:
Build a permanent political/electoral infrastructure;
Exercise & expand political influence; and
Align organizations & coordinate with other progressive forces.
Our Vision:
We envision an Oakland that realizes our shared dreams of health, happiness, safety & opportunity for all. A Town that stands for progress & sustainability, that models what is possible in American cities of the 21st century. We believe we can erase the racial, economic, political, environmental & educational inequities that have created barriers between us, & find collective strength in our city’s diversity. We know that Oakland can reach its full potential when residents of any neighborhood, students of any school, riders of any bus can help lead our city into the future.
