Centering Community:
A Celebration of Solidarity

Oakland, CA 94607

After a challenging and turbulent year, we look forward with hope and gratitude to the moments that remind us of what’s possible through the power of community. We’re pleased to announce that UnCommon Heroes will take place Saturday, November 1st, at 1 - 4 PM at the Bridge Yard.

Every day, people behind bars and in our communities fight for justice, healing, and freedom. They are UnCommon Heroes — and this fall, we’re celebrating them. UnCommon Heroes is a powerful gathering and homecoming where our community comes together to say “welcome home” to our former clients and others recently released from prison. It is a moment of celebration, reflection, and our shared commitment to building a justice system rooted in healing. This year's theme is "Centering Community: A Celebration of Solidarity."

What does celebrating solidarity mean?

For us, it’s about standing shoulder to shoulder with those who are system-impacted, recognizing our shared humanity, and committing to a justice system rooted in compassion, accountability, and collective healing. It’s a reminder that when we show up for each other, we build communities where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

Ticket sales are open now, so reserve your spot today and be part of this year’s unforgettable celebration We can’t wait to see you in November.
