Oak Park is Sacramento’s first suburb and has a rich and full history. Today, the area continues to shine as an example as a diverse community. Oak Park is home to people from all parts of the globe and to people of all incomes.This diversity is a source of many of the benefits of the community but also the many of the challenges.

OPNA works to build the finest expression of community in the Oak Park neighborhood. Its goal remains to raise the expectations not only of residents, entrepreneurs, and especially its school-age children, but also of the surrounding neighborhoods, the city, the county, and the Sacramento region as a whole. What can we accomplish together? Anything!
