Strategic Plan

 

The Oakland Fund for Children and Youth (OFCY) strategic plan adopted by City Council in November 2009 guides OFCY's funding priorities from June 2010-May 2013. The plan implements the four goals of OFCY's authorizing legislation, Measure D, KidsFirst!. The plan provides a needs assessment of Oakland's children and youth and an overview of four strategy areas. Strategies include 1) Early Childhood, 2) Out of School Time, 3) Wellness and Healthy Transitions, and 4) Older Youth.
