Hey family ~

We're a little over a week away from our POCSHN Homecoming: 10-Year Anniversary Celebration on Saturday, Dec 6th from 2 - 5pm PST in Downtown Oakland (RSVP for address)!

Since 2015, POCSHN has been organizing, educating, and building pathways for BIPOC communities to reclaim land and housing. From organizing alongside tenants to purchase their building (Liberated 23rd Ave), to working with the Sustainable Economies Law Center (SELC) to develop a rad new way for local communities to co-operatively hold housing (shout out East Bay Permanent Real Estate Cooperative ) and much more – we want this homecoming to be a celebration of all the work (seen and unseen) that POCSHN has done over the last decade.
