Overview

Mission

Promotion of grassroots leadership and civic participation to improve the quality of life for vulnerable and disadvantaged individuals.

What it reported doing in 2024

Occco works to empower individuals and congregations to use their voice to make positive, lasting change within low-income communities of color. Since 2017, we have trained more than 200 faith-based community members through our leadership academy. We've had over 30,000 conversations with voters in low-income communities of color during the past five years and involved hundreds of youth in civic engagement. Our current work focuses on housing with dignity, education justice, and immigration rights.
