Youth & Young Adult Employment…A Component of the 100 Blocks Initiative
Every year the City of Oakland hires youth during the summer, however, after speaking with many young
people who live in the 100 blocks, we found that they were unaware of the opportunities that the City of
Oakland and other agencies offered for summer employment.
We partnered with the Oakland Housing Authority, Oakland Community Organizations, Neighborhood
Services Division, Messengers4Change, East Oakland Youth Development Center, members of the faith
community, the Oakland Unified School District, and Youth Employment Partnership to ensure that the
youth living in the parts of the City with the highest concentrations of shootings and homicides had
access to these resources. Fairs were held at at McClymonds High School on Wednesday, February 29 th,
Lockwood Gardens on Thursday, March 1st, and Willie Wilkins Park on Saturday, March 3rd. More than
500 young people handed in applications, with help from volunteers and City staff. Our success can
largely be attributed to the collaboration with City agencies and community partners. We learned a lot
and will be back in April to continue the work.
