ABOUT
​OAKLAND STARTING SMART AND STRONG

Picture

Oakland Starting Smart and Strong is a collaborative created so that every Oakland child grows up healthy and engaged in learning.

Our overarching goal is to create universal access to high-quality early learning experiences that promote healthy development, so that all kids are ready for kindergarten.
​
We are bringing together community groups, early childhood educators, city and school district leaders, and people throughout the city who care about creating a strong foundation for our youngest children. ​

Oakland Starting Smart and Strong is a fiscally-sponsored program of the Oakland Public Education Fund. To learn more about the Ed Fund, click here.
