Hello friends of Oakland Parks, Recreation & Youth Development! FIGMENT Oakland has been proud to call Mosswood Park our home for the past 6 years and we are committed to seeing it flourish as a community asset. The Mosswood Park Recreational Advisory Council is asking for feedback about Oaklander’s experiences and perception of our parks through a online survey. The information you give will help lead the way to improvement in park conditions and experiences.... Please consider participating + share with your fellow Oaklanders!

Attention FIGMENTers in Oakland! The City of Oakland is developing a new Equitable Climate Action Plan (ECAP), and they want your feedback! Only by understanding the needs, concerns, and hopes of ordinary Oaklanders both residents and businesses can the City build a plan that is truly responsive to who we are as a community. You can contribute your ideas to the ECAP process by completing the Equitable Climate Action Survey here: https://www.oaklandca.gov/projects/2030eca...p Please share - thank you!
