Resilient Oakland

A city is resilient when it can respond to many different kinds of stress. Oakland has a long history of working hard work to make sure that everyone can find good schools and jobs, pay for housing, and feel safe even in hard times. To help Oakland stay a strong and resilient city, we need to work together to make a City government that Oaklanders can trust. We also need to learn to use data and research to help us make decisions about how to help the community and support the City.
