Our Programs
Community Wealth Lab
Build. Grow. Scale. A 6-week bootcamp for small businesses ready to level up.
We donβt wait for opportunity. We build it.
The Community Wealth Lab is a hands-on business bootcamp series where we come together to strengthen our businesses and build real economic power. Rooted in East Oakland and connected across the Bay Area, this is space to work on your business in real time, alongside others doing the same.
The series moves through Build, Grow, and Scale, starting with getting clear on your offer and how you show up, then bringing in customers, and building systems that help you keep going.
No one builds alone. This is our work.

The FAITHS Initiative
Rooted in faith. Built for impact. A workshop series for nonprofit and faith-based leaders.
Faith communities have always been on the front lines of building a just Bay Area. OCCUR is proud to do this work alongside them.
Through our partnership with the San Francisco Foundation's FAITHS initiative, we provide capacity-building training, technology education, and organizational development for nonprofits and faith-based organizations across the Bay Area. From nonprofit bootcamps to AI training designed specifically for faith communities, we meet organizations where they are β and help them build the capacity to do more of what their communities need.
This is our work. In community. With community. For the long haul.
