Our Oakland Team is back! Launched as a pilot with AC-OCAP funds in October of 2018, the pilot was continued into June 2019 by general funds from The City of Oakland’s District 2.
Thanks to the City of Oakland’s Human Service Department and the support of private donors, we are relaunching the Oakland Team.

In exchange for beautifying the community, Team Members receive case management and employment services support as well as a basic needs stipend. At DST, Team Members move out of survival mode and into achieving their goals.
