I thank amanda for that. I thank amanda for the work shesing to and trying to do sthees doing and trying to do, but in too many instances, members of congress are not aware of the reality out there. The stories go on and on and on. Now that the 600 a week in Unemployment Benefits has expired. Now that the moratorium on evictions has also expired, this crisis is only to get worse and worse and worse.

It was then a 147 bed psychiatric Skilled Nursing facility. Then in the early 2000s as the environment in San Francisco began to shift toward the need for more lower level residential beds, in 2003 the mayor of San Francisco established a Blue Ribbon Committee for a new design for the services provided. That process resulted in 2004, thmerf moving to a three program mixed use facility consisting of a 47 bed secure and locked Mental Health Rehabilitation Center on the third floor. A 59 bed psychiatric on the second. 41 bed residential facility. In 2005 the adult residential facility was licensed by the state Community Care licensing and began receiving first admissions.
