Oak Hill Collaborative

Oak Hill Collaborative is a small non-profit organization based in Youngstown, Ohio. Employing five people, the organization generates an annual revenue of $2.5 million. Founded in early 2014, Oak Hill Collaborative has emerged from the social justice and community improvement efforts of St. Patrick Church on Oak Hill Avenue. The Oak Hill Collaborative offers a variety of programs and resources aimed at fostering economic growth and community involvement in Youngstown. Their business incubator provides aspiring entrepreneurs with essential support, including office space, business planning guidance, grant writing assistance, and networking opportunities. The organization's MakerSpace facility provides free access to a range of tools and equipment, such as 3D printers, computers, woodworking tools, and hand tools, enabling community members to pursue creative projects and entrepreneurial endeavors. The Oak Hill Collaborative's location in Youngstown's South Side has made it a central hub for civic and community groups. The organization actively collaborates with numerous local organizations, including ACTION, Common Wealth Inc., 4 Square Block Watch, and the Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corp., to address community needs and support revitalization efforts.
