Oakland Voters Show up for Children and Families

12/7/2020

 
In the November 2020 election, Oakland voters supported ballot initiatives that would uplift equity for children and families. Measure W will fund services for people experiencing homlessness; Measure QQ enables youth to vote in school board elections; and Measure Y approved bonds to fund OUSD construction. We’re proud that our local community prioritizes much-needed social services, youth civic engagement, and a long-term commitment for school infrastructure. 

Statewide election results show that we have to continue to mobilize for equitable systemic change.

​Over the past few months, the OSSS collaborative developed our Policy & Advocacy Agenda. We're proud to join local, regional, and statewide advocacy efforts for equitable systemic change. 

In the midst of a high-stakes election season, we want to share our ballot initiative endorsements with our community. ​Vote YES on these state propositions and local measures!

If you would like additional information on initiatives that impact our communities, please review these voter guides:
