🗣️ Neighbor disputes (noise, property, shared spaces)?
🚧 Disagreements between community groups or local businesses?

Good news to start the year! 🕊️

Our first Peace Committee gathering was a success! We held space for a community member to share a concern with a neighbor.

Together they worked through solutions together, and left feeling seen heard and supported.

This is community care led by community. If you live or work in East Oakland and need support resolving an issue, bring it to our Peace Committee!
