Just Cause Oakland
SF Bay Area
Founded in 2000, JCO is a membership-based organization building a powerful voice for Oakland’s low-income tenants and workers. JCO’s mission is to create a just and diverse city and region by organizing Oakland residents to advocate for housing and jobs as human rights, and to mobilize for policies that produce social and economic justice in low-income communities of color. JCO members are residents in the working-class flatlands of East and West Oakland. Our work is envisioning and creating the city we want to live in. JCO is a multi-racial, multi-generational organization that reflects the strength and diversity of Oakland’s people. Through a combination of grassroots organizing campaigns and leadership development, JCO has successfully built a broad-based organization that has an impact on policy-makers in Oakland.
