Equity Strategy

The City of Oakland is committed to advancing policy and institutional change to address structural inequality throughout Oakland. To support concrete steps toward this goal, the Planning & Building Department issued a RFP to develop a social equity strategy that will guide this and future specific plans. The strategy will ensure that policies are developed to address the physical environment and economic conditions for all people, including those with the fewest resources, through the promotion of participatory engagement and positive social change.
