Welcome to South Prescott Neighbors
Welcome to our South Prescott community hub—where neighbors in West Oakland come together with a shared purpose: to care for our environment and create a cleaner, more beautiful, and livable place for all. Rooted in pride and unity, we’re committed to advocating for green spaces, safer streets, and a vibrant neighborhood where families can thrive.
We are calling on the City of Oakland to stand with us—invest in South Prescott and help us build the healthy, sustainable community we all deserve
A Community’s Call to the City of Oakland
We urgently need the City of Oakland’s support to clean up the growing encampments and mounting garbage on our streets. These conditions are no longer just an eyesore—they are a direct threat to the health and safety of our families. Trash and debris are spilling into our children’s playgrounds, creating an unsafe environment where kids should be able to play and thrive. The buildup of waste also presents serious fire hazards and is quickly making parts of our neighborhood uninhabitable. Our community is doing everything we can, but we cannot tackle this alone. We need the city to act now.
Monthly Meetings
Our community meets monthly on the second Friday of every month at 6:00 PM to discuss neighborhood concerns, plan clean-up efforts, and work together on making South Prescott a safer, greener, and more vibrant place to live. All residents are welcome—your voice matters.
