The Oakland Climate Action Coalition
The Oakland Climate Action Coalition (OCAC) is a cross-sector coalition dedicated to racial and economic justice that engages Oakland residents in creating and implementing climate solutions that strengthen the environmental, economic, and social resilience of frontline communities.
We are a mostly volunteer-run coalition. We are in the process of revamping and updating our website. In the mean-time, the best way to learn about current OCAC activities and to join the coalition or get involved is to contact the coalition coordinator at info@oaklandclimateaction.org.
