 Since 2017, OSSS has been working with early childhood educators through the ROCK initiative to increase resilience and healing and to promote the healthy social emotional development of children in trauma-sensitive and trauma-responsive environments.
Crucially, educators are more able to offer a healing early learning environment when they are attuned to their own well-being. That’s why, over the years, we’ve crafted and honed an early childhood educator learning framework that includes in-person and virtual group workshops, Professional Learning Communities, coaching, yoga, and self-care resources.  Each of Oakland’s City Districts has different programs, services, and community resources that support Oakland’s youngest children. Each district also has its own systemic challenges, with many children, families, and early childhood educators who have unmet needs. To help understand the city’s early childhood landscape, OSSS developed the Oakland Early Childhood Ecosystem City District Profiles for each of Oakland's seven City Districts. These profiles are for community advocates, policy and programs leaders, funders, Oakland City Councilmembers, and OUSD School Board Directors who seek to leverage data for place-based early childhood systems change.
