In-House Partners
Oakland Peace Center partners are organizations that have alignment with the mission of the Oakland Peace Center and expressed interest in deepening their connections with one another to create access, opportunity, and dignity for all people in the Bay Area. We have in-house partners (organizations with offices in the Oakland Peace Center building) or at-large partners (organizations hosted elsewhere). Whether in-house or at large, we look forward to partnering for peace.
