Alliances

Kids First 2

KF2 (Kids First 2) Coalition is a grassroots effort to advance an even broader policy and funding vision for children and youth in Oakland!! As the Oakland Fund for Children and Youth (OFCY) comes to a close, the coalition will work to re-authorize an EXPANDED CHILDREN’S FUND to increase the amount of the set-aside and allow Oakland to reach twice as many children and youth, to correct the baseline calculation so we have more vital resources for youth, and to let the Mayor and our City Council representatives know that Kids STILL come First! At AYPAL we see prioritizing youth programming and jobs as a key way to prevent violence in Oakland.
