The Kelsey is excited to be expanding our housing offerings in Oakland, in partnership with Atlas and Starcity.
Apartment homes (studio, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom) are available at Atlas Oakland. Coliving options are located at Starcity Downtown Oakland. Qualified residents are clients of the Regional Center of the East Bay, or can bring their own services. In addition to housing, residents will have access to The Kelsey’s Inclusion Concierge services.
All residents will have access to The Kelsey’s signature Inclusion ConciergeTM program, where we will support building connections with neighbors, and the greater community. Inclusion Concierge will support service coordination and host regularly scheduled Inclusion Hours and events onsite.
To learn more about these opportunities, email Ann at ann@thekelsey.org or call (408) 335-4655.
