Our Mission

The Mission for Block by Block Organizing Network (BBBON) is to build stronger and more sustainable communities for the benefit of ALL Oakland residents, especially those most impacted by the unfair ecomomic system in which we live.

Everyday we strive to:

  • develop and build grassroots leadership in neighborhoods,
  • increase participation, communication and transparency in all civic activities
  • influence  policy in all democratic institutions, and,
  • work with businesses, government, community based organizations, and civic institutions, to achieve social, political, and economic justice in a collaborative partnership led by progressives.
