OHA Reduces In-Person Services

The Oakland Housing Authority has suspended its normal business operations in accordance with directives of local public health officials. We will continue to offer emergency maintenance and essential services to our current residents and business partners until such time that we are able to reopen or expand our menu of limited services during this public health emergency.
