Who We Are …

Prescott-Joseph serves as a friendly, helping hand for the community of West Oakland.

It evolved out of the conceptual scheme for the adaptive re-use of the former Saint Joseph's Convent (St. Patrick Convent) as a center for community services, education, culture and development in West Oakland.
