Some South Oakland water tests show elevated lead levels.
OPDC invites you to hear from the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority (PWSA) about lead contamination sources and what precautions can be taken to remedy them. Join us Tuesday, January 9th, to learn more about organizing a neighborhood-wide lead level survey.

What an exciting time of year at OPDC's School 2 Career program!
Fall report cards show the amazing progress students have made since we kicked off the school year. Our seniors are beginning to receive acceptance letters from colleges. Last night, all of our kids gathered in our Oakland teen center—for many, a home away from home—for the annual S2C holiday party, where we celebrated these accomplishments and gave thanks for the community members like you who support S2C. I am honored to work with these inspiring young people each day, and I hope you’ll join me in making a year-end donation to help them achieve their dreams for the future.
