Our Work
OCOPOS works to build the capacity of communities to identify and address their specific needs. Our team of experienced professionals employs a comprehensive approach to support equitable community outcomes. While there is no one-size fits all framework, we do utilize a data- and evidence-based approach that leans heavily on our ongoing practice and that of our broader field. We also work to innovate solutions and apply our own unique, cutting edge models which we have developed and work to continually refine, incorporating lessons learned from our twenty-plus years of experience working with communities across the country.
