Acta Non Verba: Youth Urban Farm Project’s (ANV) mission is to elevate life for youth and their families in Oakland and beyond by challenging oppressive dynamics and environments through urban farming and access to the natural environment. Founded and led mainly by women and People of Color, ANV engages youth and families in safe and creative outdoor spaces in Oakland and the East Bay, CA. ANV strengthens young people’s understanding of nutrition, food production, healthy living, and the natural environment, and strengthens their ties to their community.
Acta Non Verba: Youth Urban Farm Project offers vital services in education, childcare, economic empowerment, and access to green, safe spaces and healthy food to a community solely lacking in these areas. The camp serves low-income African-American and Latino children in a community where local schools, Acorn Woodland and Encompass, report that 99% of their students qualify for free and reduced school lunches. Only 60% of residents in the zip code are high school graduates or higher; only 7% have a Bachelor's degree or higher. |

| Addiction Treatment - Sutter Health |
Sutter Health |
|
Sutter care centers have a variety of substance abuse programs that can help you get your life back. The first step is to meet with an addiction specialist to assess your problem. Then together we’ll develop a treatment plan that is right for you. We’ll also help your family and friends to learn more about addiction and how they can best help you get well.
No matter how you got started using drugs and alcohol – prescribed medications, illegal drugs, social drinking – the end result is generally the same. Over time, drugs and alcohol change your brain, making it difficult if not impossible to make good decisions. Eventually you need drugs or alcohol just to feel normal, and your use of them can seriously affect your relationships, and maybe your work or school obligations. Yet despite the negative consequences, you find it impossible to stop. |

Programs and services expanded over the past five decades to include services for unhoused, disabled, and low-income individuals, families, and neighborhoods in Alameda County.
In 2013, executive leadership expanded the mission and began developing solutions for mass incarceration and violence in the community as unaddressed crises stemming from racially biased policies and systemic inequities.
Today, BOSS is recognized as a social justice leader with housing, reentry, violence prevention, along with innovative service delivery methodologies. |

While there are many positive sport experiences, soccer is the most universally accessible; at its most basic level it offers playing opportunities that are low-cost, physically beneficial, inclusive and enjoyable. Soccer also enjoys worldwide popularity, making it the perfect platform from which to develop physically, socially, and individually.
Soccer Without Borders believes that the potential of soccer to make change is deeper than simply playing the game. Rather, our programs are built around the philosophy that soccer’s interpersonal environment has unique potential to meaningfully impact participants. Within that environment, youth are exposed to the benefits of soccer and team sports for their bodies, voices, and minds, and supported in the application of these benefits to their everyday lives and future goals. |

| Xenophon Therapeutic Riding Center |
Xenophon Therapeutic Riding Center |
|
Xenophon offers both Therapeutic Riding and Hippotherapy. Each uses the multidimensional movement of the horse to positively affect physical, psychological, and behavioral functioning. In Hippotherapy, specially trained physical, occupational, or speech therapists perform treatment using the horse as an integral part of the therapy. Therapeutic Riding involves teaching the rider how to control and direct the horse. Therapeutic Riding is technically NOT considered therapy as it is not performed by a “therapist”. However, it does provide many of the same benefits as hippotherapy. All of our therapeutic riding instructors are trained and certified through the Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship. |
