Domestic violence problems. Thank you. Good afternoon supervisors. Thank you for your time this afternoon. My name is bill hirsch and im the director of the Referral Panel in San Francisco. I want to make a couple of points. First of all, sometimes advocates are often accused of being selfserving in these hearings. I think it is important to remember that sometimes the communities that we are speaking on behalf of do not have a voice in the budget process. That is reflected unfortunately in the document that we see this year. Time and time again we do not see the priorities identified by Community Members reflected in the budget documents. I just want to point out 2 compelling need that were not addressed in the mayors Budget Proposal. The first is full funding for implementing prop f, the civil right to counsel. People do not anticipate the need for an attorney. Once they get an eviction notice i can assure you that becomes a compelling need. We did not see any additional funding to i

Working with planned parenthood has allowed me to educate myself about the services around safe sexual materials. Barriers to access prevents people from receiving necessary care which harms the community. We must do better for our Community Members. The antichoice harassment invades the personal safe and privacy of the patients. I myself am at planned parenthood.

Our organization are committed to spending significant resources. The city needs to come fit to paying true livable wages for staff and nonprofits provide Crucial Services on behalf of the city and county services of San Francisco. We are grateful for the things of the 3 cost increase. Our frontlines half need more than that to survive. Thank you for your time.
