The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) puts money in low-income families pockets.
Every year the City of Oakland, in partnership with the Alameda County Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) Campaign, provides FREE tax assistance and preparation to Oakland’s low-income families and individuals at community based Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Sites (VITA) located throughout the City.

established under the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 to fight
America's War on Poverty. Alameda County - Oakland Community Action
Partnership (AC-OCAP) is part of broad national and statewide network
of nearly 1,100 agencies, both non-profit private and public

eliminate poverty on a local and national level. CAP involves local
citizens in its effort to address specific barriers to achieving
self-sufficiency.
